Immediate Update Upon Open

[Brandon_Lantz]

Hi, This is good software. I just have one small issue that would be nice to get fixed. When opening the software as I’m putting in my password it stops me from putting in my PW until I update the software or close out the box and toggle to see my entry to enter the rest.

It would be more seamless if it just prompted me once I open it to update the software while momentarily disallowing me from entering my PW.

Thanks.

@Brandon_Lantz Welcome to the forum!

There is an open Feature Request that has proposed a different approach to solving this problem:

Bitwarden desktop - Make update notification not steal the focus during startup

Frequent updates are great, but the update notification window which appears if there’s an update available during startup is too intrusive IMO. It steals the focus from you typing in your password and this is very annoying. The main time you start up the Bitwarden desktop app is when you are in the middle of something and need a password quickly. Can the notifications be changed to a notification bar within the window that’s already displayed so we can still be attracted to the new update but…

 

If you feel like what is being suggested in that thread would not be satisfactory for you, then feel free to open your own Feature Request topic.
