Dashlane Profile | Dashlane, Inc. | Backup Files |
The DASH file extension is used by Dashlane, an award-winning password manager and secure digital wallet software. DASH files are used to store encrypted user accounts and personal information securely for quick access.
The Dashlane Profile is complete, convenient, portable and keeps all of a user's personal info safe both online and offline. DASH files contain login information including usernames, passwords, credit card numbers, bank accounts, notes, addresses and other important data such as travel documents, passwords for social networks and more. To use the Dashlane Profile, users must first create a profile in their computers. When a DASH file is created, it's downloaded onto the user's computer and encrypted using 256-bit AES-GCM cryptography.
File Validation
A valid DASH file can be identified by the.DASH file extension and the presence of the "dashlane" entry within the metadata header. The user's profile name can be seen in this identifier. When a Dashlane Profile is opened on the user's computer, they are required to enter their master password in order to unlock and access the data stored in their profile's DASH file.
Similar File Formats
Other similarly used file formats associated with Dashlane are VPBX (Dashlane Vault), DPBX (Dashlane Password File), DCDT (Dashlane Database Template) and PSQL (SQL Server Database).

After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .DASH) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .DASH extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .DASH file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .DASH extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .DASH extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .DASH file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .DASH file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .DASH file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .DASH file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .DASH file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
