I am running BlackBox Password Mgr v3 on my Windows XP machine with no problems. I just purchased a new laptop with Win 7 installed. I have been trying for many hours to get BBPM v3 running on the Win 7 machine. I've installed the product without any problem, copied the .kdb file over many many times and cannot get the password manager to accept the new imported file. <br /><br />The v3 product installs fine on Win 7, I just cannot get the database file working.<br />More details...I copied the database file from the XP machine. When I installed BBPM, I gave it a brand new passwork. Then, I tried to import the database file that I copied onto the new machine. Then, it asks for that password. When you enter it, it gives you an error message "Invalid/wrong key." I know I am entering the right key, cause it's the same one i used successfully on the XP machine. <br /><br />Any suggestions greatly appreciated...I'm at my wits end.

Hi!
did you try to copy the xp kdb file on the Win7 machine and Open it ( instead of import )?. The password which locks the kbd is contained in the kdb itself. On theother hand, if you set up a new password on exporting the kdb, then you sould use it on Win7 when importing. hth. |
