    Storing Bitlocker key files in KeePass - text file encoding

    Have tested the text files (.bek keys) that were attached to KeePass enoded with Unicode-8 (the default that KeePass offers when attaching a text file). These files transferred to a USB worked to decrypt the BitLocker encrypted drive.

    I did not test any of the other text file encoders in the KeePass list.

    What App to use to open a .mht file?

    I downloaded the MHTViewer from the Windows Store but it won't open my Windows Steps Recorder files.

    I would appreciate very much another suggestion that can view a .mht file that has pictures mixed with text.

    Encoding text

    Hi,

    Regarding your encoding concern, if we are to compare .docs from
    .txt file, Office file has a wide range of text formatting that's why word file with Czech text can be kept on it's original form. However for
    .txt files it's necessary to save them on a UTF or
    RTF format in order to encode and view the text properly.

    Send us an update if you need further assistance.
