New Features:
- Added option to use Windows' CNG/BCrypt API for
key
transformations (about 50% faster than the KeePass built-in
key transformation code; by increasing the amount of rounds
by 50%, you'll get the same waiting time as in 1.15, but the
protection against dictionary and guessing attacks is raised
by a factor of 1.5; option enabled by default; only Windows
Vista and higher).
- Completely new update checking system that now also supports
checking for new plugin versions.
- Added warning when trying to open a KDBX file created by
KeePass 2.x (with hint about how to migrate from 2.x to 1.x).
- Added '
KeeAutoNewDbBasePath' and 'KeeAutoNewDbBaseName'
configuration options (to specify the default location where
the database file will be stored in
mini mode).
- Added advanced option to immediately delete
TAN entries after
using them.
- Added '
-minimize' command line option.
- Added '
-registerfileext' and '-unregisterfileext' command
line options to register/unregister the KDB file association.
- File association methods are now UAC aware.
- Added check for reserved group names (like 'Backup').
- On Windows Vista and higher, core database manager error /
warning messages are displayed using modern
task dialogs.
- The number of days below which entries are treated as soon to
expire can now be configured (see help -> customize).
- Plugins: added new COM interface
(
IKpAPI2) for the main API
that allows querying whether the database is the one
initially specified on the command line.
- Key provider plugin API: new key query method that supports
context information.
Improvements:
- Image list handling improvements.
- When auto-locking after the specified number of seconds of
inactivity, KeePass minimizes to taskbar or to tray,
depending on the 'Minimize to tray instead of taskbar' option.
- Plugin versions are now displayed in a separate column in the
plugins dialog.
- When trying to open a second master key dialog or
auto-type
entry selection dialog for a window, KeePass brings itself to
the foreground instead of showing a second dialog.
- Calculation of soon to expire entries is now more precise.
- Various improvements to status bar messages.
- Improved workspace locking toolbar button tooltips.
- Installer: various minor improvements.
- Various code optimizations.
- Minor other improvements.
Bugfixes:
- Newlines of the notes field are now encoded correctly in
exports when Unix mode is enabled.
- New databases do not inherit file names of previous locked
databases anymore.
