    I recently installed your plugin to protect downloads on a WordPress site (V 5.6.1) and have the following problem:

    When I edit and save a user, the password of the user is also changed, although I have NOT changed the password or pressed the button “Change password”! I have already checked this error and it only occurs when the plugin is activated!

    Yes, it’s about editing users in the normal wordpress user location.

    Any news? Because this problem happened on a live site and the password change was already sent to a user who was not quite happy about it!

    Otherwise i have to remove this plugin!

    Update! After getting help from a dev, it seems that the evil guy is the chrome browser itself!!!

    Even if the password auto-filling feature was disabled, the password itself was filled in the hidden fields. Even during normal login the fields were filled in, no matter what is set!

    So Goodby Google Chrome Password Manager, hello KexPassXC.

    Sorry if I mistakenly suspected your program!
