KeeWeb is using [ykman](https://github.com/Yubico/yubikey-manager#yubikey-manager-cli), YubiKey Manager CLI, a tool developed by Yubico to access YubiKey OATH application. If you don't have it installed, KeeWeb will show the installation instructions.
YubiKey OATH is usually protected with a password, which is managed by `ykman`. If you don't have it saved there, KeeWeb will show an error.
New OATH codes can be added in other tools, such as YubiKey Authenticator. After modifying codes on the YubiKey reopen it in KeeWeb to load new codes.
