I would start by searching your user files for anything ending in KDBX. If you find files you can open them by selecting Database > Open Database in KeePassXC. If that doesn't work I would consider restoring your machine from backup. cheers, Paul p.s. this is the KeePass site, XC is a different app, but we are happy to help with XC if we can.

I would like to clarify something I posted above.....I'm only asking for help to link my KeePassXC password to my database. I feel that the path has has been changed due to the lockup/crash. For instance, a capitol letter has been changed to lower case or any file name spaces have been deleted in order to streamline files as Linux OS prefers. This can be done via terminal commands. Tom

After a lockup/crash in my Linux Mint (Mate) PC, I can no longer access my databases. I was trying to streamline my directory and filenames protocols via terminal. In the process my pc has crashed and when I rebooted the machine most of my directories and file paths no longer worked including KeePassXC. Is there any way to set it straight again ? I must admit I was communicating with ChatGPT Ai at the time and sending a copy of my terminal output to the Ai when my PC locked up, requiring the reboot...

I want that the sourceforge login only accepts autotype of the sourceforge Entry. Any other Entry should not be possible to autotype into the sourceforge login. Other Entries should be autotyped into any other window. Is this possible?

Clicking on the LastModification Date toggles through three sort orders on each click: ascending, descending, and unsorted. The sorted column will display an ˅ ˄ or nothing to reflect the sort order. IfView>Grouping Entry List is Automatic or ON, sorting will be applied separately to each group. To sort everything do the following in order: set View>Grouping Entry List to OFF, and then select Find>All. Then apply the desired sort order if needed.

Okay thank. I need to think about it.

Hi all: I recently needed to start using the Sort Modification Time column. When I click on the column header it does rearrange the entries, but it doesn't sort them by date properly. They just seem to be a mess. Am I missing something? Do plugins cause this? Or perhaps is this a bug? Thanks.

The password in the KeePass entry doesn't change but the one it "drops" does. There is no way to "drop" the same password without setting a fixed value in KeePass. cheers, Paul

Yes, but password changes (replaces by new generated one). But I need it not to change.

I thought that you knew that when you right-click on an entry in KeePass the pop-up menu includes an entry "URLs". I found one that does not have that entry in the pop-up menu. I won't explicate why I did not write down the name of that entry, other than that I was stressed by a horrible chat session with Amazon until finally a senior agent said that she would report the programming error. That is why I started the chat session, which I thought would only take a few moments; would that that was how...

Clipboard countdown progress bar timer keeps ticking
-
The status bar text should be set only when the clipboard countdown starts, not during it, because otherwise it may overwrite more important information. For example, when synchronizing two database files, most users want to see the result of the synchronization (success/failure) in the status bar, not the clipboard countdown. Best regards, Dominik

The password only changes if you place the entry in a group that is not the one you specified in the field, which seems like what you want? cheers, Paul

Roll back to V2.60 and wait for the fix to be incorporated in a production version. cheers, Paul
-
"replace" means that the placeholder automatically changes the entry's password after its evaluating. In some cases such behaviour is not necessary - please have a look at the screenshot above. Each time when I drag and drop 'Generator' field value to another windows it changes password of its entry, so it also makes changes in a database too and I need to save my database every time after using such entry

I have the same problem with "KSSimpleBackup" not working anymore on multiple PCs since updating KeePass to version 2.61. I hope the changes needed to make it work again are rolled out soon as I don't like using a snapshot version as my daily workhorse. I tried using "DB_Backup" but it seems this plugin is only for KeePass version 1.x. Is there a different version that works with KeePass 2.x?

What do you mean "replace"? Do you want the field value to change to a new password? If so try this method. cheers, Paul

Which method did you use? How did you remove the duplicates? If it was the import, have the imported entries been merged with existing ones? If so, does the CSV contain a UUID field for each entry? cheers, Paul

I would like to propose to add functionality to {NEWPASSWORD:/Profile/.../} by adding a new parameter that determines whether the generated password should replace the current one in the entry's password field or not. This is useful if I want to drag and drop or autotype custom string field, what contains this placeholder just to put generated string without changing password. For example P is a new parameter, default value P=0, what means generating password with its replacement, P=1 without replacement...

I believe that passkeys are going to be one of the key forms of authentication. Ideally what I would love to see is an-integrated native and seamless passkey implementation in KeePass. However, Dominik highlighted the time and financial constraints and suggested a passkey implementation as a plugin. I would think that such a single plugin would ideally lean on the 'sister' products implementation - KeepassXC (?)- possibly trying to make it compatible as to the database field structure and maybe even...

Combining them is easy, sorting out the duplicates and tidying is the time consuming bit. KeePass has an importer for Mozilla (Firefox) CSV, but I don't know if it does passwords . It also has a generic CSV importer , which does do passwords. Create a new empty database and import the FF CSV using the Mozilla import option. Does it create the entries you require? If not, use the Generic CSV import option. Once you have worked out how to import the data, close (delete) the new database and open your...

Radish posted a comment on ticket #2421
I see now that "Perform Auto-Type" is what happened to me accidentally. I've never used that feature before, so I didn't know what was going on. It's possible that I have a hardware problem, but no other app, including Keepass 2.58, is showing any strange behavior with the right click (or anything else). I no longer have V2.61 installed, so I can't help with the debugging.
-
I don't think that this has anything to do with version 2.61 of KeePass. The error 0x80098044 has been reported multiple times for the KeePassWinHello plugin before KeePass 2.61 has been released, see here: https://github.com/sirAndros/KeePassWinHello/issues Best regards, Dominik

Jens Witthus posted a comment on discussion Help
Hi Dominik. I made the same experience when using KeepassWinHello 3.3.1 plugin on a fresh, actual Win 11 install with Keepass 2.6.1. The plugin will no longer work. It uses my camera and recognizes me, but afterwards it will show an error message like "KeepassWinHello.AuthProviderSystemErrorException: NCryptDecrypt, Error Code: 0x80098044..." and not open my database. My current workaround is to downgrade to version 2.60. That works perfectly. KeePassWinHello is the only plugin I use.
-
You must have gone up to 2.61 from something. There is no change on 2.61 that would make it suddenly enter your credentials on a right click. It is possible your mouse is being weird. Try highlighting an entry and pressing the "context menu" key, usually next to the right Ctrl key. Does it bring up the context menu? Can you select "Perform Auto-Type" with the keyboard? cheers, Paul
-
No, I don't have any plugins. And I didn't go from 2.58 to 2.61. I went from 2.61 to 2.58. I don't trust 2.61 anymore. The bug doesn't happen all the time, but it happens pretty often.

I'm not seeing it on my 2.61 on W10. Do you have any plug-ins? Tools > Plugins. How did you go from 2.58 to 2.61? cheers, Paul

How does this make your default pattern more secure? Information what is pattern contains like length or usable character set will be encapsulated inside a database entry. The less useful information a configuration file contains, the smaller the attack surface will be.

How does this make your default pattern more secure? Are you not using a long and random password? Assuming the attacker also knows which site and what logon you use, then you have probably already lost your secrets. cheers, Paul

There are probably other parameters values in the configuration file that make sense to hide using spr, which can be useful in runtime or after opening any database. For example: <CharSetAdditional></CharSetAdditional> <ExcludeCharacters></ExcludeCharacters> <TanCharacters></TanCharacters> + It should be helpful to add in KeePass documentation information about all configuration parameters, where spr is acceptable.

Paul thanks for your reply. I had already tested regressing the version back to 2.60 (everything worked fine as expected) but in the end I preferred sticking with 2.61 and temporarily disabling "KPSimpleBackup" as I fully anticipated the coding change incorporated in the snapshot would wind up in the next release version anyway. As mentioned above, while I have "KPSimpleBackup" disabled it is of no great loss for the time being as I also have "DB_Backup" plugin installed and it works as expected....
-
That error suggests Defender doesn't like the snapshot, probably because it is a snapshot build and Defender is being cautious - which is good. A new snapshot build will not fix this. Revert to KeePass 2.60 and wait for the next KeePass release which will incorporate the changes. cheers, Paul
-
Why are you making this more complex? KeePass is already very secure and I see no improvement in your suggestions. Adding multiple key decryption seems like a nice idea but it adds complexity and potential exposure via the other keys, without adding functionality. cheers, Paul

There are several points to consider. Your PC database does NOT need to be on Onedrive - it can be local. It should be separate from the shared copy. The recommended way is to use triggers to synchronise your PC database to a central database whenever you open or close your PC database. That central database needs to be in the cloud e.g. on onedrive. On your phone you can open the onedrive copy and see all of your most recent entries. If you allow updates to the database from your phone these will...

I think that, in addition to the master password and file key, a third field could be added where one could select a word from the BIP-39 dictionary. The goal is to use this word in conjunction with the master password. Moreover, it would be impossible to lose—as it could always be recovered.
