KeePass 2.25 has been released today!

You can get it here: Download KeePass 2.25.
Download (2.2 MB) : Portable KeePass 2.25
This is a stable release. It is recommended to upgrade from any previous 2.x version to 2.25.

KeePass 2.25 mainly features auto-type improvements, entry attachment handling enhancements, an XML Replace functionality, and various other minor new features and improvements.

Hash sums and OpenPGP signatures for integrity checking are available. The .NET assemblies are signed, public keys for verifying are available.

For a comparison of the current KeePass 1.26 and 2.25, see: Editions Comparison.

Changes from 2.24 to 2.25:
New Features:

  • New auto-type key sending engine (improved support for sending Unicode characters and for sending keypresses into virtual machine/emulator windows; now largely compatible with the Neo keyboard layout; sequence parsing is faster, more flexible and optimizes the sequence; improved behavior for invalid sequences; differential delays, making the auto-type process less susceptible to externally caused delays; automatic cancelling is now more precise up to at most one keypress and also works on Unix-like systems; improved message processing during auto-type).
  • When trying to open an entry attachment that the built-in editor/viewer cannot handle, KeePass now extracts the attachment to a (EFS-encrypted) temporary file and opens it using the default application associated with this file; afterwards the user can choose between importing/discarding changes and KeePass deletes the temporary file securely.
  • On Windows Vista and higher, the button in the entry editing dialog to open attachments is now a split button; the drop-down menu allows to choose between the built-in viewer, the built-in editor and an external application.
  • Added 'XML Replace' functionality.
  • Generic CSV importer: added option to merge imported groups with groups already existing in the database.
  • Added support for importing Dashlane 2.3.2 CSV files.
  • On Windows 8 and higher, some running Metro apps are now listed in the 'Edit Auto-Type Item' dialog.
  • Added {T-CONV:/T/C/} placeholder (to convert text to upper-case, lower-case, or its UTF-8 representation to Base64 or Hex).
  • Added {SPACE} special key code (as alternative for the ' ' character, for improved readability of auto-type sequences).
  • XML merge (used e.g. when an enforced configuration file is present): added support for comments in inner nodes.
  • Added UIFlags bit for showing last access times.

Improvements / Changes:

  • In the history entry viewing dialog, the 'Open' and 'Save' commands are now available for attachments.
  • When replacing the {PASSWORD_ENC} placeholder, KeePass now first Spr-compiles the entry password (i.e. placeholders, environment variables, etc. can be used).
  • Improved configuration loading performance.
  • Improved displaying of fatal exceptions.
  • Various code optimizations.
  • Minor other improvements.

Bugfixes:

  • Data inserted by entry URL component placeholders is now encoded correctly.
