1.7 Beta4 Release Notes:
  • lots of GUI fixes and storage optimizations for storage of master password hashes. please note that new RDF subjects are used from previous betas. this means any previously-stored master password hashes will not be found. simply re-store them and all will be well. you can optionally trim the old subjects from your passwordmaker.rdf file if you are concerned about excessive file size. The subject "masterPasswordSalt" has been changed to "mpwSalt" and the subject "masterPasswordHashed" has been changed to "mpwHash".
  • added the ability to clear master password hashes from disk ("Clear" buttons)
  • localization updates
  • one remaining bug: when using auto-populate and prompted for the MPW, the comparison against the stored hash (if any) doesn't succeed. update: bug fixed
