Brief Summary

So this kind of relates to #3303, #3064 and/or #2749 but with using the AutoGeneratePasswordForNewEntries=true in the configuration.

It does generate a new password, but it does not respect the special characters request. I do have them enabled in the configuration as well. The behavior happens both in simple mode enabled or advanced.

Relevant settings as saved on the keepassxc.ini:

[General]
AutoGeneratePasswordForNewEntries=true

[PasswordGenerator]
WordSeparator=)^.
AdditionalChars=
ExcludedChars="<:;""
Length=32
WordCount=6
WordCase=2
AdvancedMode=true
Logograms=true
Math=true
Type=0
Quotes=true
Dashes=true
Punctuation=true
LowerCase=true
UpperCase=true
ExcludeAlike=false
EnsureEvery=true
Braces=true

When adding a new entry, this is a sample of the password that generates with the settings above:

When I do click on "generate password" it does then generate a random password with symbols as expected.

Thanks!

Steps to Reproduce

1. Enable "Auto Generate Password for New Entries"

2. Change the generate password fields

3. Add a new entry.

Technically I did all of the above with the .ini config file instead but should be the same process regardless on which method is chosen from what I can tell?

Expected Versus Actual Behavior

Expected: Generated password automatically follow the characters/symbols/exclusions chosen in the password generator in Advanced mode, or include symbols if chosen in Simple mode.

Actual behavior: Password that generates only consists of Uppercase, lowercase, and numbers.
