Autofilling windows apps

[stiebs]

I've just shifted to Enpass from another password app, as it does most things that I need as well if not better, and provides a nice clean interface.

One thing that I do miss though is the ability to do keyboard-emulation auto-fill for windows apps. With my previous app, I could open a windows app to its login screen, then bring up my password safe, select the correct entry, hit a hot-key, and then the password would autofill using a configurable key combination (default to <username><tab><password><enter>) by emulating keyboard input into the last window accessed.

It would be great if the Enpass Assistant could do a similar thing - when I'm prompted with an app's login screen, bring up the Enpass Assistant which then determines the app based on the window identification, finds the matching entry (or entries) and then autofills without me having to manually copy and paste the password.

This is a major thing I miss too. It's been in the roadmap for Enpass since 2017 when v6 started being crafted but no news about it last couple of months..

This is the last missing cornerstone missing for me.

Hi @stiebs

Thanks for your suggestion.

Yes, we planned to release this feature with Enpass v6. But unfortunately, we had to postpone working on this for a bit.

For now, you can use Hotkey with the Dock mode to fetch and copy the information. With the dock mode, you can stick the Enpass Assistant on the screen, and it won’t disappear when you click outside it. You can enable it from Enpass General settings under the Behavior section. Also, once the Enpass Assistant is opened, you can use the Keyboard shortcut Shift+Ctrl+ D to stick it on the screen.
