KeePassXC Portable

If you're not exactly a fan of cloud-based password managers, then you can always employ the services of similar apps with a slightly oldschool approach that store your password locally. Take, for example, KeePassXC.

What started out in life as a community fork of the great KeePassX cross-platform port of KeePass Password Safe, KeePassXC bundles a significant number of user-requested fixes and extra features, but what really defines it as a whole is its capability of storing credentials locally with an extra layer of protection courtesy of strong AES 256-bit encryption algorithm.

It also bundles a capable password generator, it comes with support for auto-typing (or auto-fill), and this particular version, KeePassXC Portable, also comes with a set of extra particular portability benefits.

For instance, it does not require installation, hence, it can easily accompany you everywhere on any storage device. Of course, it can be run on almost any computer, just as long as you keep in mind that the database is, as mentioned before, locally- stored, which means you will have to take it with you, as well.

Other than that, living with KeePassXC Portable on a daily basis should pose no challenges, mainly thanks to its minimalist user interface and feature set. It provides you with simple ways of adding and organizing your credentials (groups and sub-groups), a handy search function and other types of little things that are meant to improve the overall experience, as we're sure you won't be disappointed by quickly visiting the Settings section.

Other noteworthy advantages include the instrumentally-important password manager, which is quite capable as well, and the Auto-Type feature, which has the potential to significantly improve your productivity by automatically filling in the required log in data in the forms.

Taking everything into account, it's easy to see why KeePassXC is such a great tool. With all the necessary tools and a minimalist all-round approach, KeePassXC is one of the best options for users looking for a password manager that securely stores data on their PC, and KeePassXC Portable is probably even better since it offers everything its installer counterpart does, with a few portability quirks.
