It seems dubious that the problem was "scant memory" since I have nearly 32GB of ram available (and over 50GB of drive space). While the file normally "lives" in a nextcloud sync directory, I copied to a non-sync'd directory for testing, no change. I did all testing with no plugins on a portable installation of 2.53.1 on windows 11. I have since brought it back up to 4 rounds, 500MB, parallel 4, and it still opens. I then reduced the parallelism to 2 and memory to just 1MB (just to test it), and that worked, suggesting something internally was attempting to over-preallocate memory. Reducing the number of rounds to 2 did not work. In KP2A, I was able to reduce all of that (change/sync/test/repeat). I open the file multiple times a day, every day of the week.


I don't know what happened (maybe a failed CTRL+X when I copied the KDBX file in the external drive). This KeePass database was containing my password to access the encrypted disk where I have all my data and the copy of my Keepass. I was backuping all the data I have gathered in the past 20 years including a copy of my Keepass database (profesional & personnal stuff, pictures of lost family members, etc.) in a WD external Hard Drive encrypted by WD Security software.Īll the data was supposed to be duplicated in another Hard Drive the day after.īut when I started my laptopd, my KDBX database was not in my desktop folder anymore. My KDBX database was stored in my desktop folder (Win10). I am reaching out about a nightmare scenario I am now facing.
