Changes from 2.33 to 2.34:

New Features:

• The version information file (which the optional update check downloads to see if there exists a newer version) is now digitally signed (using RSA-4096 / SHA-512); furthermore, it is downloaded over HTTPS.
• Added option 'Lock workspace when minimizing main window to tray'.
• Added option 'Esc minimizes to tray instead of locking the workspace'.
• Added Ctrl+Q shortcut for closing KeePass (as alternative to Alt+F4).
• Added UIFlags bit for disabling the 'Check for Updates' menu item.
• The installers (regular and MSI) now create an empty 'Plugins' folder in the application directory, and the portable package now also contains such a folder.
• Plugins: added support for digitally signed version information files.

Improvements:

• Plugins are now loaded only directly from the application directory and from any subdirectory of the 'Plugins' folder in the application directory.
• Improved startup performance (by filtering plugin candidates).
• When closing a database, KeePass now searches and deletes any temporary files that may have been created and forgotten by MSHTML when printing failed.
• CHM help file: improved high DPI support.
• Various code optimizations.
• Minor other improvements.

Bugfixes:

• (None).
