Properties - General

In the General tab of the database properties, you can see some basic information about your database and make some changes, if necessary.

At the top, you can see the name of your database. It cannot be changed here. Below you can see further information:

• Location: Indicates the storage location of your database. The location cannot be changed in this dialog. To change the name of your database or the file path, you can either use the Database -> Save as command in the main menu or make those changes in the Windows Explorer.
• Size: Shows the size of your passwords file in kilobytes and bytes.
• Last modified: Informs about the date of the file's last modification.
• Authentication: Shows the currently used authentication method for this database and also allows for its Change. Furthermore, it is possible to reduce database size through compression (tick box "Use compression to reduce the Database size").

Further information about your database will be displayed in the section Content. Most of this data is only for your information and thus cannot be modified in this context:

• Contains: Indicates the number of groups and passwords contained in your databases, as well as the number of passwords that have already expired.
• Custom icons: Shows the number of custom icons included in your database.
• Attachments: Shows the number of attachments included in your database.
• Delete icons/attachments: With these buttons, you can delete the icons and/or attachments included in your database. This will decrease your database size and thereby may speed up loading it.
• Update icons: You can update your entries' icons within your database with this button. The program then will add new icons, for example.
• Ignored URLs: Shows the amount of ignored websites within your database. Click on the button Edit URLs to open the list of websites being ignored by the browser add-ons and thus not being filled in automatically. You can edit those URLs in the corresponding browser window.

NOTE: Keep your databases always up-to-date and avoid unnecessary information. If your database takes a lot of time to load, you may need to consider reviewing your attachments and custom icons, as they increase the size of your database. You can either use the Clean-up function in the Tools tab to find entries and attachments which are no longer being used, or you can delete custom icons and attachments in the General tab as described above.
