All settings are stored beside KeePass.exe.
Yes! Starting with version 1.5.0 KeeAnywhere can be used portable. Does KeeAnywhere works with portable KeePass (without installation) While this is a very good behavior for any kind of non-versioning file systems, it is suboptimal for modern cloud drives.Īdditionally most of the cloud provider’s native clients do not support multiple accounts. This is called “transacted file writes” and can be configured in options. The way KeePass standalone handles file integrity compromises these goals: it is creating a temporary file, deleting the original (production) and renaming the temporary file to the new production file.
Many of them provide file versioning and backups. Modern cloud drives are more than just a simple file storage. Why not use the native client’s folders directly in KeePass without a plugin? Therefore this plugin is hardly usable for not so experienced users and lacks full multi-account support. But to configure this plugin a technical knowledge is assumed. While also missing a database picker user interface this plugin integrates well in KeePass’ core functions. On the other side there is KeeCloud which offers URL-Style database paths. So the simple approach leads to the need to read documentation at first. Additionally most of these plugins provide a user interface for picking a database from the cloud drive. While this is at first glance a simple solution it lacks advanced features (especially beacuse of the missing possibility to access a database via a URL). Many so called “sync-plugins” encapsulate the access to cloud drives under the hood: you have to keep a local copy your database and configure a synchronization relationship. The vision is to create THE ULTIMATE CLOUD PLUGIN for KeePass. Advanced users may request disconnected (offline) access to his databases (with later syncing to the cloud) or have demand for a database backup strategy: these are topics I keep in mind and resepct in ongoing development. In my opinion the user does not want synchronization in first place: the user wants simple access to his databases in the cloud. KeePass itself provides many ways of synchronization so this topic is out of scope. KeeAnywhere is not another synchronization plugin. KeeAnywhere General What is KeeAnywhere not?
