Remember until signed out -does not exists in Windows app

Feature requests
1

In the web application this feature exists and it I could say is absolutely necessary.
Windows app 1.0.0.0 seems to be identical as much as possible to web one but option to remember password ( keep logged in ) does not exists :frowning:
Are you going to implement it ?Is it possible in other way to keep application logged in all time ?

Hello @krzys128, the Windows application should remember your passphrase until you voluntarily sign-out or your machine is not able to reach the API and you get signed-out. There might be a bug that is fixed with the newly published v1.1.0, could you confirm the behavior with the latest version?

well, where can I find version 1.1 ? On Github, where I downloaded my copy, the newest one is 1.0.0 from 10th of April.
I cannot download it from MS Store ( if there is another version) due to security reasons.

@krzys128 please check back in the Microsoft Store as version 1.1.0 is available.
Have you updated it and it’s still giving you that message?

6

I wrote about it above . I have no access to MS Store. The only way for me is to download it from Github.

Have you tried to delete the stored credentials in Windows and upload your account kit again?

11

no idea how to do it :frowning:

ok, I got it. In fact there are two different problems.

  1. new installation shows “bluescreen”

  2. session expires due to inactivity.

To keep the conversation more clear I move “bluescreen” topic to a new topic ( because the problem still exists ) and now set the focus on session expire.
Yes , I confirm , my version is 1.1.0 and still session expires due to inactivity.

So my question is : maybe nginx or mysql cuts inactive sessions in some way?

13

I haven’t seen any reply’s for my problem for almost two months

So

  • you do not experience this problem due to high activity so session do not have a chance to expire
  • my environment is completely uncommon and only here this problem appears
  • you do not use Windows version at all so you do not have a chance to meet with this situation.

Or maybe you published any new releases which solve this “bug” ?

Anyway, from my point of view, for now only web app meets my expectation and requirements :frowning:

14

I have jest installed version 1.3.1 and … there is no changes at all - still, application closes after 30-60 minutes of inactivity. Any news in this topic ?
And one more question - how to check/prove which version of Windows APP is installed ?

Version Windows App : right down corner → small heart returns version of server and winclient :slight_smile:

Hey @krzys128 ,

thanks for your message and sorry about the delay. I need more informations regarding your environment and the “inactivity” step you describe :

  • It is a lock screen ?
  • It is just a time not using the app
  • It is a sleep mode ?

Another option since I saw you are compiling the app by yourself, can be the msixbundle provide into the github ?

I will take care to keep this subject up, I understand how we can help/solve this issue,

thanks in advance

HI

thanks for an answer

So, let me describe my case.
I have two monitors desktop so I use to run a WinPassbolt on the left one and keep working on the right one . As I said SessionExpired happens after 20,30, some time 40 minutes. Screen seems to be active ( I see password list ) but when I set a focus and click for the windows it shows this message “Session Expired” and I need to logon again. Well, it happens I lock the screen for some minutes ( even hours) but in general session timeout happens with and without locking screen. No, I do not start sleep mode at all in my PC.

Right, I cannot use Microsoft store due to corprate restrictions so I take new versions from github. I got an installation script to install it from Antony B. from Passbolt team.

I am not sure but maybe we could organize teams session if it helps you in any way ?

Hey @krzys128,

Can you try to install the msixbundle manually from github ? The method you used is an old test that we tried and we expect to avoid it now and use the msixbundle.

19

Now I remember . I cannot install it directly from msixbundle because this installer needs an access to internet… which is forbidden from my station ( and all stations in my team). That’s why I got this installation script with all necessary dependencies

20

The msixbundle provided from the github does not require an internet connection. It has been release with the version 1.3.0 in the past the msixbundle was not containing all dependencies which is now the case.

We suggest by the way to update to the version 1.3.1, can you try it through the github ?
