Keychain access for Windows

Is there some way to view Keychain files on a Windows machine? I don't need to edit the keychain entries, just view them. I work on multiple machine, both mac and windows at different locations. I carry around portable versions of several apps and I'm looking for a good way to carry my keychain information with me in a safe, encrypted fashion.

Welcome to the Forums!

Nope. Keychains (i.e. .keychain files) are Mac-only. There are plenty of ways to store encrypted data cross-platform, but none that will work in the way that keychains do on the Mac (i.e. be automatically called by the OS) other than keychains, and certainly none that will work that way with both OSs.

Hope this helps...

I figured that was the case but I thought someone might have made a "viewer" utility at some point. Oh well, thanks.
