KeePass 1.17

**American Zombie** · January 23rd, 2010

KeePass is a free open source password manager, which helps you to manage your passwords in a secure way. You can put all your passwords in one database, which is locked with one master key or a key file. So you only have to remember one single master password or select the key file to unlock the whole database.

Changes from 1.16 to 1.17:

Added option to use file transactions when writing databases (enabled by default; writing to a temporary file and replacing the actual file afterwards avoids data loss when KeePass is prevented from saving the database completely).

Added high DPI support.

The Ctrl+E shortcut key now jumps to the quick search box.

In the main entry list, backup entries are now rendered with green text color.

Menus are now rendered with gradient item backgrounds.

Added support for detecting KeePass 2.08 and higher KDBX database files.

Added {GOOGLECHROME} placeholder, which is replaced by the executable path of Google Chrome, if installed.

Added '--auto-type' command line option.

Added '--lock-all' and '--unlock-all' command line options to lock/unlock the workspaces of all other KeePass instances.

Added 'KeeConfigFileOverrideGlobal' and 'KeeConfigFileOverrideUser' configuration options to change the locations of the configuration files.

On Windows 7, KeePass now shows a 'locked' overlay icon on the taskbar button when the database is locked.

On Windows 7, when opening/saving a database, the taskbar button is now animated using an indeterminate progress bar.

This was released in December but with the holidays I forgot to post it.

Nice, love this program. But it's at version 2.0 or so...so...

There are two different versions.
Classic is at 1.17 while the pro is at 2.09 and requires at least 2.0 .NET framework.
Some people do not want .NET framework or require the adanced features of 2.0x version.
