Hoewel Dominik Reichl alweer een tijdje bezig is met het ontwikkelen van de volgende generatie van zijn opensource passwordmanager KeePass Password Safe, heeft hij toch de tijd gevonden om de stabiele 1.x-tak te voorzien van een update. KeePass Password Safe kan accounts opslaan met de bijbehorende gegevens, zoals gebruikersnaam, wachtwoord en URL. Alle gegevens worden veilig in een met AES en Twofish versleutelde database opgeslagen. Daarnaast kan het programma ook automatisch wachtwoorden genereren, lijsten importeren en exporteren, en is er een geavanceerde zoekfunctie. Ook kan de functionaliteit verder worden uitgebreid door middel van plug-ins. Het changelog van deze release ziet laat de volgende veranderingen zien:
Changes from 1.06 to 1.07:[break]
- Auto-Type is now supported on Windows 9x systems.
- Added ability to use one auto-type sequence for multiple windows (thanks to Steve Harrison for the patch); see the CHM documentation file for more.
- The '^' character is now auto-typed correctly.
- New CHM help file (new layout, new content from the KeePass Online Help Center, ...).
- The default auto-type sequence can now be changed: in the INI file set the 'KeeDefaultAutoTypeSequence' string to the sequence of your choice (there's no option in the user interface for this yet); see the CHM documentation for more.
- WTS notifications are ignored if a dialog is open.
- Improved attachments description column naming in exports.
