Important
Certain feature items are now saved to the
enforced configuration file.
If you are using one or more of the following features and are
upgrading to KeePass 2.54 using an installer (setup EXE or MSI),
please note:
- Triggers:
If your triggers were not stored in the enforced configuration file
up to now, KeePass 2.54 disables the trigger system.
If you want to continue using your triggers, open the 'Triggers' dialog
(via the main menu item 'Tools' → 'Triggers'),
activate the 'Enable trigger system' option, check all triggers
(with regard to security, privacy, functionality, compatibility, etc.)
and click the 'OK' button.
- Global URL overrides:
If your global URL overrides were not stored in the enforced configuration file
up to now, KeePass 2.54 disables them
(individually; therefore, it is recommended that you remember the overrides that
you have enabled before upgrading to KeePass 2.54, e.g. by taking a screenshot).
If you want to continue using your overrides, open the 'URL Overrides' dialog
(via the main menu item 'Tools' → 'Options' → tab 'Integration' →
button 'URL Overrides'), check all desired overrides
(with regard to security, privacy, functionality, compatibility, etc.),
enable them and click the 'OK' button.
- Password generator profiles:
If your password generator profiles were not stored in the enforced configuration file
up to now, KeePass 2.54 disables them.
If you want to continue using your profiles, open the 'Password Generator' dialog
(via the main menu item 'Tools' → 'Generate Password'), click the
shield button (top right) and check all profiles
(with regard to security, privacy, functionality, compatibility, etc.).
If you are using the portable ZIP package, KeePass 2.54 tries to migrate
triggers, URL overrides and password generator profiles automatically.
If you were using an enforced configuration file that allows mixing
enforced items with non-enforced items, the non-enforced items may be
overwritten, because the default content mode of some elements has changed.
In this special scenario, it is recommended to migrate the local/global items
to the enforced configuration file manually (using an XML/text editor)
before starting KeePass 2.54.
When starting KeePass 2.54 for the first time, it checks whether there is
an enforced configuration file containing one of the elements whose
default content mode has changed. If so, a backup of your local/global
configuration file is created in your temporary folder ('
%TEMP%
',
usually 'C:\Users\
USERNAME\AppData\Local\Temp';
file name 'KeePass_
DATE_
TIME.config.xml').
After the migration steps above, you can delete the backup file, if you wish,
or the operating system will delete it sometime.
If you want to keep the backup file, move it to a different folder.
