Hi Ben,
Firstly I love KeeChallenge, it seems to do just what I needed to use Yubikey NEO with KeePass on Windows and Android.
I have come across a small issue during testing of the KeeChallenge recovery mode;
I created a KeePass database test_db.kdbx, I then created a composite master key by adding a Yubikey NEO key file using KeeChallenge.
I tested that I could reopen the Keepass test database and it worked fine. I then wanted to test KeeChallenge recovery mode so I renamed Test_db.xml to old_Test_db.xml.
As expected, after entering the Master Password and clicking OK I get an error saying the xml file was missing or corrupt and KeeChallenge would enter recovery mode. I then get a second error (screenshot attached) "object reference not set to an instance of an object"
I understand that the error may be related to my specific installation or it might be a KeePass issue rather than KeeChallenge however I thought I would start with you.
Incidentaly, I saw ticket #6 and tested the scenario with the same results as you, the recovery import seems to work without errors but the data is not imported.
KeePass version 2.28, KeeChallenge version 1.1, Windows Vista 32 bit
Regards Clive

    Clive,
    Please give the attached DLL a shot. I think I've got this error worked out and will be pushing v1.2 soon.
