What the installer does

Windows

  • Delivered as a standalone setup program (.exe) for x64.
  • Installs for the current user only, so administrator rights are normally not needed.
  • Supports unattended install with /S.
  • Declared install modes: interactive and silent.
  • Registers the proton-inbox:// link protocol.

Mac

  • Delivered as a disk image (.dmg) for Apple silicon and Intel.
  • Installs the app Proton Mail.app into the Applications folder.
  • Requires macOS 12 or later.
  • The app updates itself, so it may be newer than the version Homebrew lists.
  • On uninstall, Homebrew deletes 1 extra file.
  • A full “zap” removal also deletes up to 8 support, cache and preference locations in your home folder.

We host no installers. Every download link goes to its original source. For this software we downloaded the files from that source ourselves, re-computed each checksum and checked the code signature where our tools could, as shown above. A passing check shows a file is the one that was published; it is not a guarantee it is free of problems. For more information, visit our Security and Trust Center.

Proton Mail FAQ

Is Proton Mail safe to download from here?

We host no installers. Every download button goes to the original source, and the checks below were run on those files.

On 2026-11-05 we downloaded the latest 2 installers from those sources and re-computed the SHA-256 of each: 2 of 2 match the package catalog’s value. Code signatures: 1 valid, 1 not signed.

VirusTotal: none of its 68 security engines flagged any of the 2 scanned files.

Our rating: Safe. No check is a guarantee. See the security details above and our Security and Trust Center. Publisher’s website: Proton Mail’s official website.

Does Proton Mail update itself after I install an old version?

For Windows, we have no information on whether Proton Mail updates itself, and for Mac, the app is listed as updating itself, so an older build will likely offer, or simply install, the newest release when you open it. To keep an old version, look for an automatic-update setting in Proton Mail (see Proton Mail’s documentation) and turn it off before you rely on it.

Does Proton Mail cost anything?

It is free to download and use, but Proton Mail may also offer paid plans or extra features (license: Proprietary). For current pricing, see the publisher’s pricing page.

Which versions of Proton Mail are listed here, and how far back?

For Windows, we list 11 versions, from 1.8.0 up to 1.16.0, and for Mac, only the current release (1.16.0) is listed, because older Mac builds are not kept in the package listing. This page shows all of the Windows versions.

Where do the download links go?

They go straight to the source named in the package catalog, with nothing added by us: for Windows, to proton.me, and for Mac, to proton.me. We host no files. Compare the SHA-256 shown next to each file with the one you compute after downloading. Publisher’s website: Proton Mail’s official website.
