# Using Stored Passwords

How to transfer passwords stored in KeePass to other applications.

There are many different methods to transfer passwords stored in KeePass to other applications:

- Main Entry List
- Drag&Drop
- Auto-Type
- Plugins

## Main Entry List

Depending on which field you double-click in the entry list of the main window, different actions are performed:

- Title field: open the entry editing dialog for this entry.
  If you hold down the ``Shift`` key while double-clicking, the title is copied to the clipboard instead.
- User name field: copy user name to the clipboard.
- Password field: copy password to the clipboard.
- URL field: open URL.
  If you hold down the ``Shift`` key while double-clicking, the URL is copied to the clipboard instead. This behavior can be reversed by turning on the option 'Copy URLs to clipboard instead of opening them'.
- Notes field: copy notes to the clipboard.
- Attachment field: [1.x] copy to clipboard, [2.x] open in internal editor / viewer.
- Other fields (like time and UUID fields): copy the contents of that field to the clipboard.

## Drag&Drop

You can drag&drop all fields of KeePass entries into other windows:

## Auto-Type

Auto-Type is a powerful feature that sends simulated keypresses to other applications.

You can find more details about it here: Auto-Type documentation page.

## Plugins

There are a lot of plugins available that integrate KeePass with other applications.

You can find these integration plugins on the plugins page.
