Free software password manager
KeePassXC is a free and open-source password manager . It started as a community fork of KeePassX [ 3] [ 4] (itself a cross-platform port of KeePass ).
It is built using Qt5 libraries , making it a multi-platform application which can be run on Linux , Windows , macOS , and BSD .[ 5] [ 6] [ 7]
KeePassXC uses the KeePass 2.x (.kdbx) password database format natively.[ 8] It can also import (and convert) version 2 and the older KeePass 1 (.kdb) databases. KeePassXC supports having key files and YubiKey challenge-response for additional security.[ 3]
The Electronic Frontier Foundation mentions KeePassXC as "easy-to-use [and] robust software".[ 9] A security review of KeePassXC version 2.7.4 was completed in late 2022.[ 10]
An accompanying browser extension[ 11] is available for Firefox ,[ 12] Tor-Browser, Google Chrome ,[ 13] Vivaldi , Microsoft Edge ,[ 14] and Chromium . Extensions can be linked by enabling browser integration in the desktop application.[ 15]
