less than 1 minute read

New Features

Character Set Builder: New “Exclude characters” box to exclude custom characters from resulting character set
Password font can be reset to default in main window, password list window, and password manager to avoid scaling issues with high-DPI system settings

Changes & Improvements

Configuration | Files | Character encoding: Setting now refers to both writing and reading files; when reading files (such as word lists) and byte- order mark is not specified, encoding may default to either ANSI or UTF-8

Fixes

When combining passwords with passphrases and “Length” requirement enabled, passwords are sometimes empty
Fixed clipping issues of some labels

As of version 3.4.5, Password Tech uses the PO format (.po files) for translations. The custom LNG format (.lng files) is considered deprecated. Instructions on converting translations from the old LNG to the new PO format can be found in the manual. Password Tech still supports both formats but I recommend all translators to switch to the PO format at the earliest opportunity, since it is more powerful than LNG and also widely supported by many applications and editors, such as POEdit.
