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.

Zen Browser FAQ

Is Zen Browser 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 3 installers from those sources and re-computed the SHA-256 of each: 3 of 3 match the package catalog’s value. Code signatures: 3 valid.

VirusTotal: none of its 45 security engines flagged any of the 3 scanned files.

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

Does Zen Browser update itself after I install an old version?

For Windows, we have no information on whether Zen Browser 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 Zen Browser (see Zen Browser’s documentation) and turn it off before you rely on it.

Does Zen Browser cost anything?

No. Zen Browser is free and open source (license: MPL-2.0).

Which versions of Zen Browser are listed here, and how far back?

For Windows, we list 50 versions, from 1.18.5b (2026-02-06) up to 1.24b (the catalog has 170, and we keep the newest 50), and for Mac, only the current release (1.24b) is listed, because older Mac builds are not kept in the package listing. This page shows the newest 20 Windows versions; the JSON and Markdown files for this app list all 50 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 github.com, and for Mac, to github.com. We host no files. Compare the SHA-256 shown next to each file with the one you compute after downloading. Publisher’s website: Zen Browser’s official website.
