Work from a local copy on your PC. Have a separate copy on the PC that syncs with dropbox. When you save, sync with a copy on the PC. Open the file on the other devices direct from dropbox. Do not sync to the devices. Doing this guarantees the data on your PC is good. When changes are made on the other devices, dropbox will sync the file to the second copy on your PC. Running sync on KeePass on yor PC will merge any changes to the local copy and to the dropbox sync copy, which will then be picked...

Yes. This is how I use it (direct from my webdav server, not Dropbox). According to AI, this is how you access files direct. • Go to Dropbox and log in. • Locate the file you want to share, click Share, and then click Copy link cheers, Paul

KP2A uses the same sync mechanism as KeePass and will manage the updates for you. No need to use dropbox to sync to the 'droid. cheers, Paul

Using the selctions MAY include your chosen characters. As generation is random nothing is guaranteed. You can only guarantee characers using a pattern. https://keepass.info/help/base/pwgenerator.html#pattern I would use use this pattern and set the "randomly permute" option. aUsS{16} cheers, Paul

newpassword accepts profile names. https://keepass.info/help/base/placeholders.html#newpassword cheers, Paul

Can your NAS serve the file as a webdav? If so you could try opening / synching via URL. cheers, Paul p.s. you should always open a local copy in case the NAS / internet bit is not working. Then sync with the outside source.

Derive from password is always available and is based on the characters in your existing password. There is no guarantee that it will contain any of the character types in your current password because it is a random generator. How do you "auto change" the passwords? Are you using the profile option in the generator? cheers, Paul

In KeePass2Android, open the file directly from Dropbox, then you don't have to worry about the sync. KP2A will cache a copy in case DB is not available. cheers, Paul
