So I end up using 1P for storage and then Keepass for auto type of specific entries - which is a pain because then I’m managing two copies of an entry (the original in 1P and a copy in Keepass). Keepass - for how powerful and secure it is - is not “pretty” and doesn’t have any cloud functionality since it’s a purely local application. It’s a true “Autofill” and I’m sure 1P is aware of this functionality - I’m wondering why 1P doesn’t include it on Windows.
#KYPASS WINDOWS CODE#
Version 2.x’s “Global Autotype HotKey” is the specific feature I’m using.ġPassword should have the capabilities to do this - especially since the Keepass code is open source and viewable as an example. See the docs for Keepass version 2.x here if interested. You are able to configure the fields and windows for this auto-type behavior on an entry by entry basis. With Keepass, you can have the app minimized and with a single keyboard shortcut - get it to auto type directly into multiple fields and then submit the form.
#KYPASS WINDOWS MANUAL#
It’s still a lot of manual work - you have to have 1P open in another window and click and drag each field. So yes - I could be opening a bug report for that - but that’s not really a good solution anyway to me. The result is that when you click and drag - the first 1-4 chars of the field are cut off - it happens consistently for me. It doesn’t work properly in some applications, including the one I’m testing, due to it not always re-focusing on the app login properly. Hi that’s exactly the click and drag operation I referenced in the OP. It's a pain to have to keep KeePass around for basic functionality (Desktop App Autofill) that 1Password doesnt have. Am I missing the functionality in 1Password somewhere ? Or is there some reason this wasn't implemented ? Why can't 1Password, which we pay a premium for, do this as well ? The code is literally freely available (depending on whatever KeePass's license is of course).
Keepass works perfectly here, despite being open source and free. Keepass, free and open source, allows me to target the window and autofill from its own DB.
#KYPASS WINDOWS PORTABLE#
I can't find any way to get 1Password to auto-fill to this application.Īnd yet - downloading a portable version of open-source KeePass has me up and running in on this in about 10 mins. It's not in a web browser so browser autofill is also off the table. The login screen does not allow copy and paste of credentials, only manual type - so using 1Password's "click and drag" functions or simple Copy/Paste via Quick Access don't work. I have a desktop application that spawns a login screen, which I want to use 1Password to fill. The setup in question is with the 1Password desktop App on Win10.
