Entry Dialog Explains options in the Entry dialog.

In this dialog you can add/edit entries.

  General

On this tab page you can specify the main information about the account. Apart from filling in standard information (user name, password, etc.), you can also assign an Expiry Time. When this date is reached, the entry is automatically marked as expired (using a red X icon in the main window). The entry won't get deleted after it's expired; just a different icon will be shown.

If you cannot think of a good password for new accounts or want to let the computer generate a secure one: click the Generate Password button right of the Repeat Password line. The built-in password generator of KeePass will come up, which you can use to generate a very strong password.

  Advanced

On this tab page you can assign custom strings and file attachments to the entry.

Custom Strings:
Each entry can have an arbitrary amount of custom strings. These strings can hold any information of your choice (for example: additional e-mail addresses, passwords, more URLs, etc.). The strings will be stored encrypted in the database (as all database content).

File Attachments / Binaries:
You can attach files to entries. The files will be imported into the KeePass database and associated with the entry. When importing files, KeePass does not delete the original source file! You need to delete them yourself, if you wish. File attachments are stored encrypted in the database (as all database content).

  Auto-Type

On this page you can configure the auto-type behaviour for this entry. For more information, see the Auto-Type help page.

  History

Each entry got its own history. Each time you change an entry, KeePass automatically creates a backup copy of the current, non-modified entry before saving the new values. These backup copies are listed on the History tab page. You can delete backup copies if you are sure that you won't need them any more, or you can restore any of the backup copies.
