Keepass clipboard issue

Hi,

Anyone come across any good solution to avoid clipboard storing copied passwords from Keepass?

I am using the default clipboard that comes with KDE/Plasma.

Clipboard saves the password then Keepass writes an empty clipboard entry instead of overwriting the last entry.

Re: Keepass clipboard issue

KeePass uses Mono and  is rather poorly integrated with modern Linux desktops. I think you should try KeePassXC instead.  It' written in Qt5 so it should work well under Plasma. And you can still use your existing KeePass database with KeePassXC, so you won't lose any data if you decide to switch.
