In a password-protected database, KeePass Password Safe securely stores all your confidential information: login credentials for various websites, home banking data, email info, and so on. KeePass Password Safe comes with a handy tool to generate passwords. When you can’t think of a secure password on your own, let this handy tool lend a helping hand.

KeePass Password Safe is available as a Classic and as a Professional edition; or to put in other words, the application is available as a 1.X and as a 2.X edition. Both editions are available as an installer and as a portable version. Both editions will work with any Windows edition from Windows 2000 up to Windows 8. A comparison table between the two editions is available on the keepas.info website.

A list of groups is presented on the left hand side of the application’s interface. Select a group and all the entries in that group will be presented on the panel to the right. Select an entry and more information will be presented on the panel down at the bottom. That’s how things are by default. If you want to disable the panel that displays entry info, you can easily do so from the View Menu. A few other customization options are available in this View menu.

To create a new group you must go through the following steps: enter a group name, pick a group icon.
To add a new entry you must go through the following steps: pick a group, pick an icon, enter a tile, enter a username, enter a password or generate a password, enter a URL address, enter some notes, set an expiration time, attach a file. You don’t have to enter all this info – pick and choose, enter only the info you want.

The functionality KeePass Password Safe has to offer can be enhanced with plug-ins. When the installation process completes, you will be invited to visit a plug-ins webpage.

Go get KeePass Password Safe Classic and use it to securely store, manage, and generate passwords.

Pros

KeePass Password Safe is available as a Classic and as a Professional edition; both are available as an installer and as a portable version. KeePass Password Safe stores data in a password-protected database. Easily create groups, easily add entries. There’s a handy password generator. Support for plug-ins is provided. The interface can be customized. KeePass Password Safe is free software.

Cons

KeePass Password Safe Classic is free software; KeePass Password Safe Professional is also free software. Since the Professional version has more to offer, I don’t see why you would want to use the Classic version.
