Password Tech 3.5.0 + x64 + Portable

Password Tech 3.5.0 features new high-resolution icons, various user interface styles (including light and dark themes), and allows attributing frequencies to placeholders in the character set of the Include characters option (syntax: <placeholder>:N[+] with N = Include exactly N characters and N+ = Include N or more characters); for instance, <symbols>:2+ includes at least 2 symbols in the password. The password manager PassCube features new fields “Password changed” (date & time of last password change) and “Password history” (history of up to 255 previous passwords and associated date & time values).

NEW FEATURES:

- PassCube password manager: Added option to compress database file using the
"Deflate" algorithm; available in File | Database Settings | Compression
- PassCube: When editing a database entry, password needs to be confirmed in a
separate dialog if it has been changed manually and if it is hidden in the box
- PassCube: "Quality bar" below the password box in the edit panel illustrates
the estimated quality/security of an entry's password
- PassCube: Added button next to URL box for opening the specified URL

CHANGES & IMPROVEMENTS:

- Reworked password quality bar such that the color gradient ranges from 0 bits
(red/orange) to 64 bits (midpoint, yellow) to 128+ bits (green); the quality
rating is stricter now since the green color starts to become visible at
~75 bits instead of ~55 bits
- Translations: Changed custom LNG format to PO (GNU gettext) format, which is
widely supported by many applications and web services, allowing translators
to use dedicated editors such as "Poedit"
NOTE FOR TRANSLATORS: Existing translations in the LNG format (.lng file) can
be converted into the new PO format (.po file) by loading the translation in
PwTech, selecting the corresponding language in the drop-down box (Options |
Configuration | Language), and pressing the button "Convert to new PO file
format"
- Format password: Made format specifier <<...>> compatible with options
"asterisk (*)" and "random number from range", so that format sequences such
as *1-26<<<az>>> ("Randomly permute letters a..z and insert a random number
between 1 and 26 of permuted characters into the password") are functional

NEW FEATURES:

- PassCube password manager: Databases can be protected by key files in addition
to or in place of a regular password; password entry dialog allows selection
of key files and creation of new 256-bit key files
- PassCube: Recovery password (and/or key file) can be configured to enable
recovery of the database in case the regular master password has been lost;
databases can then be opened using either password; alternatively, the
recovery password may function as an "administrator key" to allow individuals
with elevated rights to access all databases in an organization (provided that
all databases have been set up with the same recovery password)
- PassCube: Remember last selected entry and tag(s) when locking database

CHANGES & IMPROVEMENTS:

- PassCube: Changed HMAC algorithm (to protect data integrity and authenticity)
from SHA-256 to SHA-512 in new version of database format (1.3)
- PassCube: Search options "Fuzzy" and "Case sensitive" moved to context menu,
which can be accessed by right-clicking on the search button in the toolbar
- PassCube: "Notes" column in list view: Ignore line breaks, length limited to
200 characters
- Added digital signatures to all executable files

FIXES:

- Various minor bug fixes

NEW FEATURES:

- Password manager: Filter entries that will expire soon ("soon" can be
specified in the configuration); these entries are marked by a warning
triangle symbol in the list view
- Password manager: Open database as read-only via File | Open As Read-only
- Configuration | Database: New parameters "Warn if database contains entries
that will expire soon" and "Number of days" to specify the term "soon"
- Password option "Capitalize first letter of each word"

CHANGES & IMPROVEMENTS:

- Configuration | Database: Parameters "Clear clipboard on minimize" and "Clear
clipboard on exit" replaced with single parameter "Clear clipboard when
closing/locking database" ("Database" sheet)
- List of advanced password options (checkboxes) rearranged

FIXES:

- "Include at least one..." options not effective for phonetic passwords in some
cases
- Lua stack overflow when generating large amounts of scripted passwords
