A C# based offline password manager for Windows.

Download official build from "Releases" on right.

Private Guard is a one-man project I started July 11th, 2020. The goal of Private Guard is to create a completely offline password manager that uses independent files with military-grade encryption while also remaining entirely open source. Private Guard was created in Visual Studio 2019 as a WPF Application and is entirely constructed in C#. I had very little previous experience with C# or making desktop applications before this.

In the Private Guard application there is a button called "How to Use" which will link you to a unlisted youtube video that I created that explains how to use the application.

If you are still stuck you can refer to the Github Wiki page which also explains how to use this application as well as some common errors and Q&A.

As of today, Private Guard is currently in its final release form. There will likely be no other updates unless a major bug or security flaw is discovered. This project has taught me a lot about designing desktop applications!
