KeePass Password Safe is a free/open-source password safe or manager which helps you to manage your passwords in a secure way. You can put all your passwords in one database, which is locked with one master key or a key-disk. So you only have to remember one single master password or insert the key-disk to unlock the whole database. The databases are encrypted using the best and most secure encryption algorithms currently known (AES and Twofish).

    Works ok, though I prefer fsekrit. Mostly I'm just surprised that the author didn't realize that "Keep Ass" might not be the best name to use.

    Couple of reasons why the db size grows.
    1. You store attachments with entries.
    2. You must not have cleared the backup folder.

    1. Please buy a USB drive to store your backups. Storing on GOOGLE is not a safe place. Your privacy is not guaranteed.

    2. Empty the backup category in Keepass.

    IMO a good way to preserve all kinds of important documents is to store them online. Like in Gmail inbox. Check out also this good guide:
