KeePass Source

Download KeePass for Windows, macOS, Linux, Android & iPhone

KeePass is a free, open-source password manager that keeps your passwords in one encrypted .kdbx file on your own device, unlocked by a single master password. It works fully offline, needs no account, and has no company server that could ever be breached. This page points you to the right build for your platform and shows exactly what you are downloading, including how to verify it.

KeePass 2.x runs natively on Windows 7–11 (x86, x64 and ARM64), and on macOS and Linux through Mono. There is no official KeePass app for Android or iPhone — those platforms use community-built clients such as KeePass2Android, KeePassDX, Strongbox and KeePassium, which open the same .kdbx database. Each card below links to the correct one for your device.

How to verify a file yourself

Hash the file you downloaded and compare it with the value above. A match means the file is byte-for-byte the one the KeePass project published.

Windows (PowerShell)
Get-FileHash .\KeePass-2.61.1-Setup.exe -Algorithm SHA256
macOS / Linux
shasum -a 256 KeePass-2.61.1-Setup.exe

Windows SmartScreen may warn you that KeePass is an unrecognised app. That is expected and can be safely ignored — hash verification is a far stronger check than SmartScreen’s download-count heuristic. Official hashes and signatures: keepass.info/integrity.html.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about KeePass.

Does KeePass work offline?+

Yes — and that is the security model, not a limitation. Your passwords live in a single .kdbx file on your own machine, encrypted with AES-256 or ChaCha20. KeePass needs no internet connection, no account, and there is no company server that could ever be breached or shut down. The trade-off is that you own your backups: if the file is lost or the disk fails, the data is gone. Keep a copy in more than one place.

What is the current version of KeePass?+

KeePass 2.61.1 is the current stable release of KeePass 2.x, published on 1 May 2026. The official project publishes SHA-256 hashes and an OpenPGP signature for every file at keepass.info/integrity.html — that page is authoritative. Version numbers shown on download sites should always link back to that official source rather than being copied around.

Should I download the installer or the portable ZIP?+

Use the installer on a Windows PC you own: it adds Start-menu entries and file associations, and updates cleanly. Choose the portable ZIP if you do not have local administrator rights, or if you want to run KeePass from a USB stick without installing anything. Both are the same application and read the same database format.

Can I recover a KeePass database if I forget the master password?+

No. If you have lost the master password and there is no key file, the database cannot be decrypted by anyone, including the KeePass authors. This is a direct consequence of strong encryption, not a limitation of the software. Prevent it instead: use a long passphrase you will remember, keep a key file as a second factor, and store a printed emergency sheet somewhere secure.

Why does Windows SmartScreen warn me about KeePass?+

KeePass is distributed as an unsigned or rarely-downloaded executable, so SmartScreen shows an 'unrecognized app' warning until the file has been downloaded by enough users. This is not evidence of a problem with KeePass. Verify the file yourself using the SHA-256 hash published on the official integrity page — that is a far stronger guarantee than SmartScreen's reputation heuristic.

How is KeePass different from KeePassXC?+

KeePass is the original C#/.NET application for Windows, and it has a large plugin ecosystem. KeePassXC is an independent C++ rewrite that runs natively on Windows, macOS and Linux, but does not support KeePass plugins. The important part for switching: both read and write the same .kdbx database format, so your passwords move between them freely.
