The new Adobe AIR damages the Passpack Desktop’s Local Storage

Aug. 24, 2012

Your attention, please.

The new Adobe AIR, on some Operating Systems, resets the Encrypted Local Storage where the local Passpack Desktop data are stored. So, please, before upgrading to the new Adobe AIR, do a backup of your local data from “tools > backup” so that, if the data will be lost after the upgrading, you can restore it.

If your data is lost, the only way to recover it is to restore the status of your operating system to a restore point before the upgrade to the last Adobe AIR. Some users were able to recover all the data this way. After recovering the data, please, backup the entries before upgrade again and restore the entries after restarting the account.

Mar. 10, 2008

Passpack is built to make sure that not even we can read your passwords. But – how can that be? How does it work? Folks are often frightened away by reading uninvited technical explanations.
