Password Tech: starší verze ke stažení

Note: This version is a maintenance/bugfix release. UI texts and runtime
messages have not changed compared to previous version 3.6.0, so translation
files created for 3.6.0 are fully compatible with 3.6.1.
Changes & Improvements
- Random pool: Hash function BLAKE2s replaced with BLAKE2b variant for better
performance on 64-bit architecture
Fixes
- PassCube: When editing an existing database entry with "Hide notes" enabled
(button down) and saving the changes, notes are overwritten with place holder
text displayed in the Notes box

New Features
- Added option to estimate password quality (along with password quality bar)
to "Enter password" dialog
- PassCube: Added database name/description box to password settings
- PassCube: Password confirmation can be skipped by pressing "Skip" button in
"Enter password" dialog
Changes & Improvements
- Redesigned password quality bar: Color (ranging from red over yellow to
green) and length (full length = 128 bits) indicate password strength
- Password database format version 1.8: (a) Use Encrypt-then-MAC scheme,
(b) use different keys for encryption and HMAC, (c) always use salt (random
32-byte sequence) to derive encryption key when recovery key is set
- Support for base32-encoded Donor Keys
Fixes
- PassCube: Adding/modifying database entry: Changed password accepted when
pressing "Cancel" button in "Confirm password" dialog

IMPORTANT NOTE As of version 3.5.10, Password Tech no longer supports 32-bit
versions of Windows. Only 64-bit builds will officially be provided. If you're
still using a 32-bit version of Windows, for which support by Microsoft has
ended in October 2025, I strongly recommend updating to Windows 11 at your
earliest convenience.
New Features
- PassCube: Database settings: New option "Master password expires" allows
setting an expiry date for the master password; when opening the database,
user will be warned if the master password has expired or will expire soon
Changes & Improvements
- Password database: As of database version 1.7, master password and recovery
passwords are encoded as UTF-8; databases created with older versions (with
UTF-16 encoding) will be updated to UTF-8 when changing master/recovery
password; note that databases with UTF-8 password encoding are no longer
compatible with older program versions (< 3.5.10)
- Perform multiple attempts to clear clipboard when data cannot be accessed
immediately
