Troubleshooting

Issue: Import fails with an error Solution: Ensure the file format matches your selection. Try exporting again if the file is corrupted.

Issue: Some passwords are missing after import Solution: Some managers use proprietary fields that can’t be imported. Check if items were exported correctly from the source.

Issue: Duplicate entries appear Solution: Vault doesn’t automatically detect duplicates. You can manually delete or merge duplicate entries.
