How to convert kdb to kdbx file

Both the older KeePass databases (.kdb) and the newer (.kdbx) files are still supported in latest version of the program and it can both import and export both versions just fine. No need for a 3rd party utility or any kind of kdb to kdbx converter and quite frankly, there may be no such utility that could convert these files anyway.

Understanding KDB and KDBX file formats

The KDB file format is primarily associated with KeePass, a popular open-source password manager. KDB files store encrypted databases of passwords and other sensitive information. On the other hand, the KDBX file format is an updated version of KDB, introduced with KeePass 2.x. It offers enhanced security features and improved functionality, making it the preferred choice for users upgrading from KeePass 1.x to 2.x.

Why convert KDB to KDBX?

Converting from KDB to KDBX is essential for users who want to take advantage of the latest features and security improvements in KeePass 2.x. The KDBX format supports advanced encryption algorithms, better data integrity checks, and a more flexible database structure.

Best software for KDB to KDBX conversion

The most reliable way to convert KDB to KDBX is by using KeePass itself. Follow these steps to perform the conversion:

  • Open KeePass 2.x.
  • Go to File → Open → Open File... and select your KDB file.
  • Once the file is open, navigate to File → Save As....
  • Choose the KDBX format and save the file.

This method ensures that all your data is accurately transferred to the new format while maintaining the integrity and security of your information.
