hello
I have been using it for many years and I have a question, I don't know if it can be done with any plugin
When you open the program and it asks you for the password, the path where the database is appears on the screen, this cannot be removed to provide more security and the path does not appear.
Also, is there a way that if you enter the password incorrectly many times it will be blocked for a while?
The location of the database is not a secret, so there is no security advantage in hiding it. However, displaying the path can be helpful to a user, if nothing else it reminds the user where to find their database.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
We field a lot more complaints here that boil down to a person not knowing where their database file is stored (or worse, not knowing what a database file is, nor why they should care about where it gets stored) than complaints about shoulder surfers gaining access to a person's database file by reading its location from the screen.

thank you very much for your help
