Would like the ability to right click on a password and select "Type in window" again in version 8, I used it quite frequently.

    Hi @Jer82,

    Thanks for writing in.

    We haven't implemented this yet and we do want to add this.

    In case you haven't seen or were using the main window, you can use Quick Access to find your item quickly and copy/paste data in (drag and drop support is something we're aware of as well). Quick Access can be invoked with Control + Shift + Space.

    It would be nice to add Type in Window to Quick Access for sure.

    By the way, if you were using the main window, you can drag the fields to drop it into other apps to have it typed in.

    Hi Mike, Unfortunately the software I use it with does not support copy and paste which is why I used the "Type In Window" feature.

    Hi @Jer82,

    Does drag and drop from the main window help?

    Hi Mike, no, I just tried it and it does not work either.

    Interesting, is it possible to share the software name to us in public or privately via email, so we can test it and figure out why it doesn't work?

    Is that software by any chance running in elevated mode (meaning it ask for admin rights when you start it?)
