Introduction

Password Safe is a password database utility. Like many other such products, commercial and otherwise, it stores your passwords in an encrypted file, allowing you to remember only one password (the "safe combination"), instead of all the username/password combinations that you use.

What makes Password Safe different? Three things:

  1. Simplicity: Password Safe is designed to do one thing, and to do it well. Start the application, enter your "combination", double-click on the right entry - presto - the password is now on your clipboard, ready for pasting.
  2. Security: The original version was designed by Bruce Schneier - 'nuff said.
  3. Open Source: The source code for the project is available for inspection. For more information, see https://pwsafe.org.

The current version of Password Safe currently runs on Windows 7 and later. Older versions are still available supporting Windows 95, 98, ME, NT, 2000, XP, Vista as well as PocketPC. Support for additional platforms is planned for future releases.

Linux packages are also available for popular distributions. See README.LINUX.md for more details.

FreeBSD is also supported. See README.FREEBSD.

Downloading

The latest & greatest version of Password Safe may be downloaded from SourceForge or GitHub.

Internationalization (Non-English Support)

Thanks to the help of volunteers from all over the world, PasswordSafe has built-in support for the following languages:

  • Arabic
  • Czech
  • Chinese
  • Danish
  • Dutch
  • French
  • German
  • Hungarian
  • Italian

You can update the translations or add another language via transifex, or by dropping me a note.

Installation

For convenience, Password Safe is packaged into an executable installer program. This installs the program, sets up shortcuts and allows you to uninstall the program from the Windows Control Panel. However, if you prefer, the -bin.zip file contains all the files you need. Just extract the files (using WinZip, for example) to any directory, double-click on the Pwsafe.exe icon,and that's it. You may want to create a shortcut to your desktop and/or Start menu. Finally, a Microsoft installer (.msi) package is also available.

Password Safe is available under the restrictions set forth in the standard "Artistic License 2.0". For more details, see the LICENSE file that comes with the package.

Password Safe 3.29 and later makes use of the pugixml project, which is available under the MIT license.
