KeePassXC 2.4.1 released

By Janek Bevendorff
Posted on  in Releases

We are happy to announce KeePassXC 2.4.1, the first maintenance release of the 2.4 series!

The new release fixes several bugs introduced in the previous feature release, including a case of possible data loss when unsafe saves were disabled on macOS and an issue with reading legacy keyfiles preventing the user from opening their database.

Other notable changes are a crash fix when editing the master key, macOS Mojave dark mode enhancements, various KeeShare fixes, restoration of the previous Ctrl+C behavior for copying entries while searching, as well as tab order and navigation / UX improvements.

We also fixed a compilation error with older GCC versions, so PPA users on Ubuntu Xenial (and Trusty for that matter) are able to enjoy the new release as well.

The new release can be downloaded from our downloads page, our Ubuntu PPA, and Snapcraft.
