Changes from 1.35 to 1.36:

New Features:

• KeePass now uses Transactional NTFS (TxF) for writing database files, if possible; this improves the compatibility with other programs that are watching these files (e.g. file synchronization services).
• Added automatic completion support for the user name box in the entry editing dialog (suggesting user names that are used in other entries).
• Added option 'Search for passwords in quick searches' (turned off by default).
• The KP1_CFG_LOCAL environment variable now supports paths relative to the current working directory.

Improvements:

• File transactions now preserve access control list (ACL) entries.
• File transactions are not used anymore when attempting to write to a local file that does not exist yet (to ensure a correct default ACL).
• File transactions are not used anymore for files that have a reparse point (e.g. symbolic links).
• The configuration system does not create a KeePass folder in the user's application data folder anymore when the target configuration file location is outside this folder.
• Upgraded to Boost libraries version 1.68.0.
• Upgraded installer.
• Various code optimizations.
• Minor other improvements.

Bugfixes:

• (None).
