SysPass is an open-source password management application that securely stores and manages passwords. This tutorial will guide you through the steps to install SysPass on your Windows 10 machine.
Before getting started, ensure that you have the following prerequisites:
The first step is to download SysPass from the official website at https://www.syspass.org/. Click on the "Download" button to download the latest version of SysPass.
In order to run SysPass, you will need a web server software such as XAMPP. You can download XAMPP from https://www.apachefriends.org/download.html. Follow the installation instructions for XAMPP.
Once you have downloaded SysPass, extract the files to the htdocs folder in your XAMPP installation directory. This can typically be found in the "C:\xampp\htdocs" path.
Next, you need to create a MySQL database for SysPass. Open up phpMyAdmin by going to http://localhost/phpmyadmin. Click on the "Databases" tab and create a new database with a name of your choice.
Open up your web browser and go to sysPass/">http://localhost/sysPass/. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation of SysPass. During the installation, you will be prompted to enter your database details that you created in step 4.
Once the installation is complete, navigate to http://localhost/sysPass/index.php to log in to SysPass. Use the default admin account and password (admin/admin) to log in. You should change this password once you have logged in.
Now that you have successfully installed SysPass on your Windows 10 machine, you can start securely storing and managing your passwords. Remember to always keep your system up-to-date and secure by keeping your passwords safe and using strong passwords.
