    (action)' (in 'Tools' -> 'Options' -> tab 'Interface (1)',
    turned on by default)

    the 'Open From URL' dialog
  • When an exception occurs while creating/compiling a PLGX
    file, streams/readers/writers are now closed immediately

2024-06-01: 2.57

  • Added option 'Prevent certain screen captures' (in 'Tools' ->
    'Options' -> tab 'Security', turned off by default); note
    that this may also prevent legitimate other software (remote
    desktop solutions, accessibility tools such as screen
    magnifiers, etc.) from seeing KeePass windows

  • Added the new option 'Prevent certain screen captures' in the
    'Enforce Options (All Users)' dialog (in 'Tools' -> 'Advanced
    Tools' -> 'Enforce Options')

  • Key files can be created on the secure desktop now

  • Added shortcut keys for the 'Copy Group (Encrypted)'
    (Ctrl+Shift+C) and 'Paste Group' (Ctrl+Shift+V) commands

  • Ctrl+Shift+V can now be used for pasting entries while the
    group tree has the input focus and vice versa

  • Added 'More' button in the icon picker dialog, which shows a
    menu that provides two commands: 'Rename' and 'Export'; the
    menu is also shown as context menu of the custom icons list

  • When importing an icon, the file name without extension is
    now used as icon name

  • Added option 'Remember password hiding setting' in the main
    window column configuration dialog (turned off by default)

  • Added support for long paths when running on .NET 4.6.2 or
    higher

  • Some error messages now contain the type and the HResult of
    the exception that occured

  • Some error messages are now more detailed when running
    KeePass with the '-debug' command line option

  • Bitwarden JSON import: two-digit years are now converted to
    four-digit years

  • Added UIFlags bit for automatically adjusting weak key
    transformation settings to the current default values
    (without a confirmation dialog)

  • Added DPI detection on Unix-like systems

  • For applications using KeePass as a library: added a new
    common initialization method ('CommonInitialize') that allows
    a custom error handling/reporting

  • Databases are now always saved in the KDBX 4/4.1 file format;
    if you need a KDBX 3.1 file (e.g. for compatibility with an
    old app), perform an export: main menu 'File' -> 'Export' ->
    format 'KeePass KDBX (2.34, Old Format)'

  • Auto-Type: improved compatibility with Remote Desktop Client
    (WSL)

  • In an auto-type error dialog, the sequence is now only

    secure desktop, trying to perform an operation that is not
    supported on the secure desktop now results in a simple error
    message, i.e. it is not possible anymore to choose to cancel
    the dialog and perform the operation on the normal desktop;
    this avoids certain accidental data loss scenarios

  • Various improvements in the simple file browser dialog (for
    the secure desktop)

  • While a hot key control of the options dialog is focused,
    dialog-specific keyboard shortcuts are now disabled

  • Changed the 'MAC Address' password generator profile such
    that it always generates a unicast, locally administered MAC
    address in the SLAP administratively assigned quadrant

  • In the icon picker dialog: moved the 'Export' command into
    the 'More'/context menu of the custom icons list

    TLS/SSL protocol versions that are supported/enabled by the
    framework/system
