Description

Overview

Unchecking special characters (like /*+&) only takes effect currently. KeePassXC doesn't remember the previously configured unchecking special characters.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open the password generator:

1

  1. Uncheck the special characters:

2

  1. Close the generator and reopen it again:

3

Now the generator checks the special characters again, which does not remember my configuration. This behavior seems to be happened internally, but it also influences the password generator of KeePassXC-Browser plugin, I cannot get a expected password.

Expected Behavior

KeePassXC should remember the configuration and write it into the config file, and apply it immediately.

Actual Behavior

The previously unchecked special characters appears again when I reopen the generator, the configuration only takes effect currently.

Context

Related issue: #5525
This problem appears since version 2.6.1, but has not been fixed yet.
The temporary solution is change this configuration in the config file, but it is not a good way.

I install KeePassXC using scoop: scoop install keepassxc
