Hey everyone! I've been trying to organize my online accounts and found something interesting in my Google account settings. I realized I have no idea what passwords I've saved there or which accounts they're for. I've looked through Google's help resources but can't find a clear way to view these passwords. I even downloaded Google Chrome and enabled syncing, hoping to find my passwords, but still nothing. There's an option to clear everything, but I want to know what I'm deleting first. Has anyone figured out how to see the passwords saved there?
Is Sync turned off on the device in question?
I recently deleted all my passwords (Cookies, and so on) from my son's PC, and was supposedly signed out so it was only supposed to do this on that machine, not across all devices.
Luckily I had a PC that is only used every couple of weeks that hadn't synced.
I turned the WIFI off, went in to chrome Password Manager, then settings, then exported all passwords to a csv file. I was then able to import these to the machine that was online and hit sync and all is restored.
I had the same issue after updating Chrome on my Mac yesterday. All saved username and passwords disappeared from password manager, but were still all there in passwords.google.com. And saved info was not autofilling for login to any websites. Spent hours searching the internet for a solution to no avail.
Then I resorted to restarting my laptop, and suddenly password manager was intact again upon restart, and website login autofill was working again as usual.
It works well for me. I use 2 Yubikeys (1 as a backup) to secure my Google account.
