Strange, I don't understand the difficulty you had.  I used Windows7 with
Gnupg4win and KeePass2 and if anything, it worked more smoothly on that setup
than on linux.  Autotype worked extremely well and integrated well with the os
and applications.

Since I moved to linux about a year ago, I've had to settle for a less easy
interface between my applications and KeePass2 with autotype being less easily
integrated.  I look forward to moving up to Jessie on my laptop and checking it
out to see if I can share the same happiness that Jerome has found.

(And, as I remember it, KeePass2 on Windows did not need buying unless you mean
you made a voluntary contribution.)

I use, paid for, Keepass2 for Windows. I have for years. My comment was
in reference to the provider of Gnu4Win that has decided that he will be
my nanny and not let me easily use KeePass2 with his package as I do
with so many other logins.

I am well aware of GNU/Linux and its many limitations. I tied it several
times. However I prefer an OS that works without having to hunt down
strange little men that live in cellars in strange countries that pirate
code.  :-)

KeePass2 supports all Windows versions: http://keepass.info/download.html

And you are free to install a GNU/Linux distribution on your computer
and get rid of Windows.

Don't be sad! :-)

Good for you Linux users and for you Jerome.  :-)

Sad to say that the powers that be still do not provide that to those of
us that use Windows. Sadly Big Brother still lives today.  :-(
