## Summary
Bitwarden has released web client version 2026.10.0, focusing on performance and data migration fixes.

- **Improved Import Logic**: Expanded Proton Pass import support for more item types and fixed non-ASCII character corruption (bullets, smart quotes) in LastPass imports.
- **Bug Fixes**: Resolved a critical issue where the vault would fail to load if certain SSH key items were present.
- **CLI Enhancements**: Added desktop biometric unlock support to the CLI (behind a flag).

## Why it matters
These improvements streamline the migration process for users moving from Proton Pass or LastPass to Bitwarden and enhance the reliability of SSH key management.
