I'm tempted to migrate the passwords on my browsers to this, before the upgrade, especially after reading the article at https://www.networkworld.com/article/3183675/security/stop-using-password-manager-browser-extensions.html !!!

    I have used Keepass2 for a while now. Works for me. I also use one of the read only tools on my new chrome book.

    How do you do it to sync your different devices using Keepass? Stephen Gunnell

    Isis Ophelia I used to keep a copy of the datanase on a thumb drive which I used to keep all the machines up to date. Now I have the database on Google Drive.

    Ooh, good tip. I looked at LastPass, but apparently security is all full of holes.

    I think I'm more likely to put mine on a memory stick, and keep a backup as well.

    I had 2 home machines and 2 work machines sharing a common database and I kept a small thumb drive on my key ring.

    Yeah. I have 3 PCs at home and used to have issues synching Firefox on them. I finally fixed that and then abandoned Firefox, because they kept reseting my customisations and changing so much that key addons could no longer be used. A thumb drive would be independent of any browser.
