Zaterdag is versie 2.09 van KeePass Password Safe verschenen. Met deze opensource-passwordmanager kunnen accounts worden opgeslagen inclusief de bijbehorende gegevens, zoals gebruikersnaam, wachtwoord en url. Alle gegevens worden veilig in een met het Rijndael-algoritme versleutelde database opgeslagen. Verder kan het programma ook automatisch wachtwoorden genereren en lijsten importeren en exporteren.
In versie 2 is het programma volledig op de schop gegaan; zo maakt het nu intern gebruik van xml. Verder heeft het programma om zijn werk te kunnen doen minimaal versie 2.0 van het .NET Framework nodig, of versie 2.2 van Mono wanneer het programma onder Linux, Mac OS X of FreeBSD wordt gebruikt. Een volledig overzicht van de verschillen tussen versie 1 en 2 is op deze pagina te vinden. Hieronder zijn alle veranderingen te vinden die sinds versie 2.08 zijn aangebracht:
New Features:
- 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 PLGX plugin file format.
- Enhanced database synchronization by structure merging (relocation/moving and reordering groups and entries).
- Added synchronization 'Recent Files' list (in 'File' menu).
- Synchronization / import: added merging of entry histories.
- Synchronization / import: backups of current entries are created automatically, if their data would be lost in the merging process.
- Database name, description, default user name, entry templates group and the recycle bin settings are now synchronized.
- Added
{NEWPASSWORD}placeholder, which generates a new password for the current entry, based on the "Automatically generated passwords for new entries" generator profile; this placeholder is replaced once in an auto-type process, i.e. for a typical 'Old Password'-'New Password'-'Repeat New Password' dialog you can use{PASSWORD}{TAB}{NEWPASSWORD}{TAB}{NEWPASSWORD}{ENTER}.- Added scheme-specific URL overrides (this way you can for example tell KeePass to open all http- and https-URLs with Firefox or Opera instead of the system default browser; PuTTY is set as handler for ssh-URLs by default; see Options -> Integration).
- Added option to drop to the background when copying data to the clipboard.
- Added option to use alternating item background colors in the main entry list (option enabled by default).
- The Ctrl+E shortcut key now jumps to the quick search box.
- Added auto-type sequence conversion routine to convert key codes between 1.x and 2.x format.
- Added workaround for internal queue issue in
SendKeys.Flush.- Added more simple clipboard backup routine to workaround clipboard issues when special formats are present.
- Added native clipboard clearing method to avoid empty data objects being left in the clipboard.

{GOOGLECHROME}placeholder, which is replaced by the executable path of Google Chrome, if installed.- Added
{URL:RMVSCM}placeholder, which inserts the URL of the current entry without the scheme specifier.- Added ability to search for UUIDs and group names.
- Toolbar searches now also search in UUIDs and group names.
- Added
{DELAY=X}placeholder to specify a default delay of X milliseconds between standard keypresses in this sequence.- Added option to disable verifying written database files.
- Attachment names in the entry view are now clickable (to open the attachments in the internal editor or viewer).
- Added Unicode support in entry details view.
- Added option to render menus and toolbars with gradient backgrounds (enabled by default).

- KeePass now restores the last view when opening databases.
- Added system-wide hot key to execute auto-type for the currently selected entry (configurable in the options).
- Added option to disable auto-type entry matching based on title (by default an entry matches if its title is contained in the target window title).

- Added entry context menu commands to sort by UUID and file attachments.
- Custom string fields are now appended to the notes when exporting to KeePass 1.x KDB files.
- Enforced configuration files are now item-based (items not defined in the enforced configuration file are now loaded from the global/local configuration files instead of being set to defaults).
- File transactions are used when writing configuration files.
- KPScript: added 'ChangeMasterKey' command.

- Plugin developers: added static window addition and removal events to the
GlobalWindowManagerclass.- Plugin developers: added ability to write custom dialog banner generators (
CustomGeneratorofBannerFactory).- Plugin developers: the
IOConnectionInfoof the database is now accessible through the key provider query context.- Plugin developers: added static auto-type filter events (plugins can provide own placeholders, do sequence customizations like inserting delays, and provide alternative key sending methods).
- Plugin developers: added
UIStateUpdatedmain window event.Improvements / Changes:
- Simple text boxes now convert rich text immediately.
- Improved entry change detection (avoid unnecessary backups when closing the entry dialog with [OK] but without any changes; detect by content instead of change events).
- Header in entry selection dialog is now non-clickable.
- Entry list header now uses native sorting icons.
- Key providers are now remembered separately from key files.
- The main window is now the owner of the import method dialog.

- Improved import/synchronization status dialog.
- Improved import/synchronization error message dialogs.
- Entry history items are now identified by the last modification time instead of last access time.
- The trigger system can now be accessed directly through 'Tools' -> 'Triggers...', not the options anymore.
