Passbolt Windows App 1.3.0: Bug Fixes and 4.9.0 Browser Extension Support

Passbolt Windows application 1.3.0 is a significant update that addresses long-standing user requests, enhances performance, and fixes bugs reported by the community.

In this release, a highly requested feature was introduced where the grid now displays the location of resources. This addition provides extra meta information to help users efficiently identify passwords and where they are located. Additionally, the search functionality has been improved to use resource locations as meta information. Users can now retrieve a resource by using the names of its parent folders, which can greatly simplify the process of finding passwords depending on your organisation's classification system.

The team has also focused on various performance improvements to meet the growing needs of organisations managing an increasing number of passwords. These enhancements also prepare the way for the upcoming v5.0.0, which will support more content types and include an additional encryption layer. Both the API and the browser extension have been optimised, resulting in a 50% improvement in retrieving and treating collections of resources, according to our benchmarks.

We extend our gratitude to the community for their feedback and assistance in testing this release. We hope these updates enhance your experience with Passbolt and we look forward to hearing from you.
