Old KeePass Versions

The packages listed here belong to earlier KeePass releases, not the current build. The archive represents versions 2.57.1, 1.42, 2.57, 2.56, 2.55, 2.54, 1.41, 2.53.1, 2.53, and 2.52, plus 19 additional entries, while the main package page currently records 2.61.1 and 1.43.

The archive is intended for version research and package identification rather than as a second review of the same software. Its value comes from showing which older builds existed, how they were packaged, and which operating systems those files targeted.

KeePass Version Archive

The page contains 58 archived packages across 29 recorded versions. The visible version set is 2.57.1, 1.42, 2.57, 2.56, 2.55, 2.54, 1.41, 2.53.1, 2.53, and 2.52, plus 19 additional entries, and the package rows identify Installer (2.x), Portable (2.x), Installer (1.x), Portable (1.x), Installer - Professional Edition, Portable - Professional Edition, Installer - Classic Edition, and Portable - Classic Edition, plus 4 additional entries as the associated operating-system coverage.

Package identification can be checked against names such as KeePass-2.57.1-Setup.exe, KeePass-2.57.1.zip, KeePass-1.42-Setup.exe, KeePass-1.42.zip, KeePass-2.57-Setup.exe, KeePass-2.57.zip, KeePass-2.56-Setup.exe, and KeePass-2.56.zip, plus 50 additional entries. Across the inventory, EXE and ZIP formats appear, reflecting the different installation or portable-delivery methods used by these releases.

  • Archived versions: 2.57.1, 1.42, 2.57, 2.56, 2.55, 2.54, 1.41, 2.53.1, 2.53, and 2.52, plus 19 additional entries.
  • Recorded platforms: Installer (2.x), Portable (2.x), Installer (1.x), Portable (1.x), Installer - Professional Edition, Portable - Professional Edition, Installer - Classic Edition, and Portable - Classic Edition, plus 4 additional entries.
  • Package formats: EXE and ZIP.
  • Stored package records: 58; records with checksums: 82.

Working With Archived KeePass Releases

Use this archive when the exact KeePass version is part of the problem being investigated. Examples include checking an inherited workstation, rebuilding an older environment, validating a migration, or matching a package name found in deployment records.

Version age introduces trade-offs. An old build may match a legacy dependency but lack later fixes, current platform support, or changes to external services. Testing should therefore happen on non-critical data or an isolated system before the package is used operationally.

Package and Platform Compatibility

The archived package rows cover Installer (2.x), Portable (2.x), Installer (1.x), Portable (1.x), Installer - Professional Edition, Portable - Professional Edition, Installer - Classic Edition, and Portable - Classic Edition, plus 4 additional entries. A package should only be evaluated against the platform and architecture it was built for; similarly named files can still target different systems or installation methods.

The EXE and ZIP formats shown in the file set represent different delivery methods. Record the selected filename alongside the version so another person can identify the same historical package later.

Checksums and File Identification

The archive retains checksum values for 82 packages out of 58. Available digest types include MD5, SHA1, and SHA256; these are identification records rather than a substitute for compatibility or security review.

A checksum comparison only works when both sides use the same algorithm. Exact filename, version, size, source record, and digest should be considered together when documenting the provenance of an old package.

Choosing Between Old and Current Versions

The main listing and archive serve different purposes: 2.61.1 and 1.43 appears on the current page, while 2.57.1, 1.42, 2.57, 2.56, 2.55, 2.54, 1.41, 2.53.1, 2.53, and 2.52, plus 19 additional entries are preserved here for historical package identification.

In most cases, start with the current KeePass page because later releases may include compatibility changes, maintenance fixes, and updated platform support. Choose an archived version only when a documented requirement justifies it.
