The UI looks old. If you don\u2019t like it, try KeePassX the native Linux password manager.<\/p>\n<p>The software does not provide Linux binary package so far. Besides building from the source, you can use the unofficial Ubuntu PPA.<\/p>\n<p>NOTE: I offer no warranty for any package in the PPA. Build rules and patches borrowed from the Julian Taylor\u2019s PPA. Use it at your own risk.<\/p>\n<p>1.Open terminal from start menu and run command to add the PPA &amp; Type user password when it asks since sudo command need user authentication and hit Enter to continue<br \/>\n[simterm]sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntuhandbook1\/keepass2[\/simterm]<\/p>\n<p>2.Then run command to update package cache, though it\u2019s done automatically in Ubuntu 20.04 &amp; higher while adding PPA:<br \/>\n[simterm]sudo apt update[\/simterm]<\/p>\n<p>3.) Finally install this mono based password manager package by running command:<br \/>\n[simterm]sudo apt install keepass2[\/simterm]<\/p>\n<p>By keeping the Ubuntu PPA, next time a new release is published you\u2019ll be able to upgrade it using system\u2019s Software Updater (Update Manager) utility.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Uninstall KeePass2:<\/strong><br \/>\nTo remove the software package, run command in terminal:<\/p>\n<p>sudo apt remove &#8211;autoremove keepass2<br \/>\nAnd remove the Ubuntu PPA either via command in temrinal:<br \/>\n[simterm]sudo add-apt-repository &#8211;remove ppa:ubuntuhandbook1\/keepass2[\/simterm]<br \/>\nor by launching \u201cSoftware &amp; Updates\u201d utility and removing the relevant line under \u201cOther Software\u201d tab.<\/p>\n<p>For more details about the release visit the official page on the link below.<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/keepass.info\/news\/n210910_2.49.html[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]In this article we will guide you on how to install KeePass new released, KeePass Password Safe 2.49 released with user interface improvements and minor new features.
