Using a password pattern overrides the random generator to guarantee certain outcomes. This is not a random selection. cheers, Paul

Random choice cannot guarantee any output, otherwise it cannot be random. cheers, Paul

I would start by searching your user files for anything ending in KDBX. If you find files you can open them by selecting Database > Open Database in KeePassXC. If that doesn't work I would consider restoring your machine from backup. cheers, Paul p.s. this is the KeePass site, XC is a different app, but we are happy to help with XC if we can.

As I said above, if you put the placeholder in a non-password field it works. cheers, Paul

The password in the KeePass entry doesn't change but the one it "drops" does. There is no way to "drop" the same password without setting a fixed value in KeePass. cheers, Paul

I had that earlier this year (I think, can't find the post). I put in a message box that I have to click OK on before the trigger runs. The problem has not recurred for a while now. cheers, Paul

Depends on how you installed it. If you used the installer then I would un/reinstall. cheers, Paul
