Overview

DB Browser is an ultra lightweight viewer for SQLite databases. It is made to allow those familiar with spreadsheets to work more easily with the common SQLite format. However, that is all that it does; you cannot use it on other database types.

DB Browser on Windows

First head to the DB Browser download page, and select the version that matches your system. On Windows this is most likely the 64-bit standard installer.

Once the download has finished, start the installer from the browser or your download location.

Once you have started the installer, press the Next button to continue.

On the next screen, accept the license agreement and press Next. The following page will ask you if you would like to place shortcuts anywhere. Desktop will place icons on your desktop, while Program Menu will add options to your right click menu. You can choose to have these if you wish, I will not. Press Next once you have decided.

On the following screen, you will be asked to select what components you want to install and where. You can safely keep the defaults and continue. Press Install on the following page.

One the installation is complete, you can press Finish to close the installer!

DB Browser on Mac

First head to the DB Browser download page, and select the version that matches your system. There should only be one for Macs.

Once the download has finished, launch the installer. You will most likely see an alert from your browser.

To finish installing, drag the DB Browser icon into your apps folder.
