We promised to update our FileZilla recovery tool a long time ago. Now we’re finally ready to release the new version to the public. Huge amount of testing has been done on both Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7 to make sure all passwords from all configurations and all versions are recovered.
What’s new:

• Fully re-written software, no leaks or password file size limitations
• Support of FileZilla 3 (including recovery of proxy passwords)
• Support of proxy passwords in FileZilla 2
• Support of FileZilla Server passwords (only admin password can be retrieved)

Thanks to our dear users, we have identified two issues with the FileZilla Password Recovery:

1. Passwords can be recovered from FileZilla v2.x from both registry and xml files but FileZilla 3.x passwords are not recovered
2. Size of one of the variables that holds the data internally is not large enough. As a result when you have many sites saved in the Connection Manager some of these sites will not be shown.

In the next couple of weeks we’ll re-write our FileZilla password decryption tool and release a new version with these and other tiny bugs removed.
