Download KeePass Password Safe 1.05

KeePass Password Safe has just been updated to version 1.0.5. This program is an open source password manager and can store accounts with associated data such as username, password and URL in an AES and Twofish encrypted database. The program can automatically generate passwords, import and export lists, advanced searches and use plug-ins that extend the functionality further. The changelog for this release looks like this:

Changes in version 1.05:

• KeePass is now developed and compiled using Visual Studio 2005 (with MFC 8.0); older compilers and IDEs aren’t supported anymore
• Implemented C-style interface for plugins (KP_Query and KP_Call; MFC is not required anymore to build KeePass plugins!)
• Heavily restructured the source code (extracted KeePass core library, separated platform-dependent and platform-independent code)
• Workspace is now locked automatically if Windows is locked or the user switches to a different account (Windows XP only)
• Improved single instance behavior
• Improved support of paths with mixed directory separators
• Improved command line handling (thanks to Bill Rubin)
• Changed command-line parameter handling for plugin parameters (thanks to Bill Rubin for this patch)
• Improved plugin handling (DLLs are checked for interface methods; improved KeePass startup performance)
• Added update checking feature (automatically and manually; the ChkForUpd plugin project is discontinued)
• Password list is refreshed after auto-typing a TAN number
• Fixed a bug that caused the group focus to jump to the first group after saving the database (when having the entry-backup and the delete-backups-before-save options enabled)
• Handle to plugin manager window is passed to plugins in KPM_DIRECT_CONFIG and KPM_PLUGIN_INFO messages
• When performing ‘save-as’ the lock files are updated now (the one of previously opened file is deleted, a new one is created for the new database)
• Tray menu items are now disabled when KeePass displays a modal dialog
• Added advanced option to disable the ‘save’ button if the database hasn’t been modified
• Renamed default file menu items (new, open, save, …)
• Improved {CLEARFIELD} behavior
• Other improvements and bug fixes
