Launch KeePass and automatically open password file

Submitted by brodiemac on October 8, 2010 - 5:15pm

I know this can be done by having the .kdb file in the same location as the KeePass executable but I was wondering if there is a way to do this with the file in a different location? I have mine in a different directory to make backups easier but I still would like KeePass to launch and open the file simultaneously. Is that possible in the portable version?

ClamWin Bug: Can't Save Reports (Affects Portable and Local)

Submitted by Alcasar on September 9, 2010 - 3:31pm

I just installed the latest version 0.96.2.1 and i still get the Error FFFF message when ever i try saving an update report.

It might have something to do with the fact that when ever i go into the preferences all the directories are blank unless i put the cursor in the blank space and move it around, then the directory appears.

Is there something wrong with the relative paths or something?

ClamWin: CWP 96.2.1 update query

@JTH

I just updated from 96.1 to 96.2.1

I was happy to see that \Data\settings files were maintained
But
all the files in \Data\db were wiped out:
main.cvd
daily.cld
bytecode.cvd
mirrors.dat
during the update [and before the program was actually run].

Fortunately I had a copy of those files and restored them before running the program. Upon launch everything ran fine.

I THOUGHT you said after the last update, when there was a significant change in CW, that the installer would only do this if you were upgrading a version earlier than 96.1 or something like that.

Clamwin Portable puts text files on host machine \appdata\local\temp\

After a failed DB definition update at work (probably corporate firewall related) I read the error message. At the end of the failed connection attempts I got to this

Giving up on database.clamav.net...

ClamWin: CWP Says CWP is a trojan?

Submitted by oraclex7 on September 3, 2010 - 10:55pm

Okay, strangeness abounds.

I installed the suite on my new USB HD, and just for fun thought I'd run CWP, updated the defs as it said since it was the first time running, then started scanning the USB drive, my McAfee picked up the temp files as a trojan, but I know the reason for that after looking through this forum (thanks for that answer)

But then I thought I'd scan the processes in memory... And CWP picked up itself, twice as a trojan, some generic one or other.
