Rickard Andersson, 35, is said to have had a licence for four firearms - three of which were reportedly found at the school.
Andersson, described as a loser with "extreme social phobia", had reportedly previously enrolled at Campus Risbergska but hadn't attended classes there since 2021, according to Aftonbladet.
The suspect - who was raised in Orebro - had allegedly also attended class for people with Asperger's and high-functioning autism at the local Wadkoping Education Centre, per Sky News.
Authorities have said there is no evidence the perpetrator had "ideological motives" and that he was previously unknown to them.
Chilling details emerged from witnesses after the massacre, stating that the gunman mysteriously chose to walk past certain people, deciding not to shoot them.
A horrifying video, filmed by student Hashem Shams desperately trying to hide from the gunfire in a cubicle, captured someone saying "Get out of Europe".
Syria's embassy in Stockholm said some of its nationals were among the dead, at the school which taught Swedish language classes to migrants.
Bosnia's ambassador said two of its citizens were also among the dead.
He had supposedly been unemployed since 2015 and legally changed his name from Jonas Simon in 2017 - to the shock of his family.
