Entry Type: Certificate

To add new certificates, click on Edit → New → Certificate or use the arrow on the Add button on the toolbar. The new entry will be saved in the currently opened folder (shown in the navigation area on the left-hand side).

On the General tab, you can enter the following information:

  • Description: Enter a description for the new entry. The description is the name that will be displayed in the password area, and is therefore the only field that is not optional.
  • Change icon: To change the icon of a certificate, click Change icon to the right of the description. If you left-click the icon, the Select icon window opens. If you right-click the icon, you can choose between three options: Select Icon... (guides you to the Select icon window), Load from URL (using the standard icon of the URL you entered), and Reset Icon (resets the standard certificate icon).
  • Public key: You can select a certificate by clicking the folder icon, view it by clicking the magnifying glass icon, or save it by clicking the floppy disk icon.
  • Private key: You can select a certificate by clicking the folder symbol, view it by clicking the magnifier symbol or save it by clicking the floppy disk symbol as well.
  • Password: Enter the password. By clicking the eye symbol, you can hide or display your password in plain text.
  • Show/Hide password (eye icon to the right): Changes whether the password is shown or hidden (and represented by dots).
  • Category: Categories help you to structure your passwords.
  • Importance: Define the importance of your password using the Importance drop-down menu. Based on the selected option (High/Medium/Low), you can later identify which passwords are particularly important.
  • Expires: If your certificate is valid for a limited time, you can add an expiration date here. By clicking Extend, you can extend its validity.
  • Tags: You can add tags to allow for better filtering of your entries.
  • Comments: You can add further notes.

Additionally, the following tabs are available:
