Additionally, KeePass is automatically configured to store its settings in the application data directory of the current user. This way multiple users can use one KeePass installation without overwriting each other's settings each user has his own configuration file.
The setup program must run with administrative rights, however KeePass runs fine without administrative rights once it is installed. Updating: Run the KeePass You do not need to uninstall the old version first. Your configuration options will not be lost. Uninstallation: In order to uninstall KeePass, run the uninstallation program, which is accessible by a shortcut in the start menu folder of KeePass, or in the program section of the system control panel. If you also want to remove your configuration settings, you need to delete the configuration file in the application data directory of your user profile, see Configuration.
The default settings of the installer are used. No questions will be asked though. Destination Path: The installer allows to choose the destination path to which KeePass is installed. However, when the installer detects an existing KeePass installation, it assumes that the user wants to perform an upgrade and thus doesn't display the destination path selection page; the old version will be overwritten by the new version.
If you want to move an existing KeePass installation to a different path, first uninstall the old version; the installer of the new version will then display the destination path selection page again. The portable version can be carried around on portable devices like USB sticks and runs on any computer directly from the device, without any installation. It doesn't store anything on your system in contrast to the setup package, see above. KeePass doesn't create any new registry keys and it doesn't create any configuration files in your Windows or application data directory of your user profile.
AuthPass has a sidebar to the left that lists all of your logins. Click on an item and the application loads the corresponding information on the large pane to the right. The top half of this pane displays the name of the database the credentials are saved in, the group folder name, and the date when the information was last modified. Left-click on the Group name to bring up the folder tree into view, you can use it to move the entry from one group to another.
The large icon next to the entry's name is a button, which when clicked upon displays more icons to choose from. The fields on the lower half can be used to view the title of the saved account, the URL it has been associated with, the username, and the password.
All of these fields have a three dot button to the right edge, clicking on which displays a few options. The copy field option clones the selected field. You can rename or delete a field, generate strong passwords from the pop-up menu. The "protect value" setting obscures the selected field like a password box does.
To reveal a protected field, click on it. The present menu item displays a QR code of the selected account. AuthPass can be used to add notes or attach files to saved entries. Click on the save button at the end of the window to preserve your changes. To delete an entry, select it and click on three-dot menu in the top right corner and hit the delete option. The Hamburger menu in the top left corner displays the Group tree. You can select multiple groups or a specific group to list their contents.
The floppy icon appears on the toolbar when there are unsaved changes, click it to save your database. The filter icon can be used to toggle deleted entries, and to access the Group tree.
Have too many entries? Trouble finding a specific account? Click on the search icon to find what you're looking for, the results are displayed in real-time as you type.
The three-dot menu in the toolbar has shortcuts for managing groups, check for updates, lock the database, switch to a different file. AuthPass has a built-in password generator, it has a few toggles to include lowercase, uppercase characters, Umlauts, Numbers, special characters, and the length of the password. Drag an entry in the sidebar to the left like a swipe gesture to copy the username, drag it to the right to copy the password.
It is worth noting that AuthPass for Windows and Linux is still in an early phase, they were released a few months ago. That being said, here are some things I didn't like about the program. The program didn't warn me to save the database when I made some changes and exited it, which is kind of annoying. I'd like to see a portable version of the program.
AuthPass does not support plugins, which can be a bit of an issue for some users, e. Speaking of which, the program does not support AutoType or AutoFill, there is no browser extension either, so you'll have to manually copy and paste your credentials on the sign in page.
