Plus I always get a niggling from mixing the two. With this I have no idea why anyone would want to keep using Keepass. It shows up in the portableapps menu, no further config required. You can extract the zip for the windows version of KeepassX onto your usb stick and place it into the portableapps directory. At least that is what the website says.Īnyway, I did some experimenting and the problem isn't what I thought. Keepass is currently beyond 2.x, but still supports saving in the 1.x format. I use Keepassx on Ubuntu and Keepass on windows they share the same data from a thumbdrive, so the versions I have open the same. This way also preempts having to sync the databases.

The usb based kpx can do the same, thereby eliminating the platform issue, unless you want to use it on another non-windows box. I would suggest storing your keepassx file on the thumbdrive and just setting your desktop based kpx to use it. Kinda undermines the whole portability benefits. It is loaded with great apps and very nice overall, but totally useless if your goal is to be able to pop it into a linux or windows box and use the same apps the same way. The portableapps suite doesn't support linux.

Which you can do, it has a windows version.Īnd 2. Easier to just run KeepassX straight of the thumbdrive. There are workarounds, but having to work around the PAF suite defeats the purpose of having it in the first place. The two are separate projects and use different password databases.

There are portable versions of keepass on there download page.ġ.
