    Today, I upgrade my keepass from 2.09 to 2.10,I found that there some problem with Auto-type on my computer.

    I use Firefox , and also set the Master Password to protect password for some Add-ons. But where I open Firefox, Firefox let me input the master's password, I use Ctrl(Right) + Alt(Right) + A, but it doesn't work(I usually use those keys on keepass 2.09 and before), I also try to use Ctrl(Left) + Alt(Left) + A, it works fine for some times(not every time works fine).

    dose any reach this problem?

    BTW: my operating system is: Windows XP Pro SP3.
               Firefox version: 3.6 (English).
               Keepass Version: 2.10 (Where I reuse 2.09, everything is OK again.)

    Have you checked the hot key is still registered?
    Does right clicking an entry and selecting Perform Auto-Type work?

    cheers, Paul

    thank cheers for you reply

    I do  a test as your reply using keepass 2.10, find that the hot key is registered, but when I use Ctrl + Alt + A to perform auto-type on Firefox master key dialog, it doesn't work.
    then I use right clicking the entry and selecting Perform Auto-Type,it work fine.

    after input Firefox Master's password, I can use Ctrl + Alt + A to perform auto-type on any web site freely.

    and I also find that when I run "PAGEANT.EXE D:\keys\mysshkey.PPK" can't use Ctrl + Alt + A to perform auto-type on entering Passphrase dialog.

    when I switch to ver 2.09, everything work fine.

    Maybe the Title matching has changed in V2.10. What title matching do you use?

    cheers, Paul

    The Firefox Master key dialog's title is "Password Required", on Keepass entry I use "Password Required" and "*Password Required*" as target window title, but both failed.

    Try *required or password*.

    cheers, Paul

    On the Auto-Type tab for the entry, select Add and choose the window from the Target Window drop down.

    cheers, Paul

    cheers, follow your direction I got the Windows title is "Password Required", and it already in the "Use custom sequences for specific windows" box.

    Try the RDCAutoTypeAndTCATO plug-in.

    Version 2.10 has to many problems with Auto-Type.
    All that entries are working fine with 2.09
    Using the RDCAutoTypeAndTCATO plug-in solves that for me.
    I've now configured iexplore.exe and firefox.exe.
