Does Keepass do updates?


Sure. Not that often as it's a pretty simple app.

Do you think one might be as effective as a W10
update... 8-O


Unlikely. Microsoft's effectiveness is legendary!

Since then I've used enpass for about two years with the same
experience.


I've used my formula system for 30+ years. Long before Keepass/Enpass
was a gleam in the developers eye. And I have had lots of errors over
the years due to my somewhat faulty wetware. But then I can just rethink

I tried that [formula passwords] for a while, but some websites

Me too. Just had to rethink my formula. Good for the wetware. Use it or

Doing that limits you to the lowest common denominator. Resulted in making
passwords too short. Plus, then you need to reset the password for the
tens/hundreds of sites with the old system. Life's too short.

brain cells
