I need some advice with (the browser) on . Please read the entire description before writing a reply:

  1. I have stored user names and passwords for many websites.

  2. If I navigate to the login page of one of those sites, my user name and password are inserted automatically (as it should be).

  3. If I click the little 'key' symbol in Chrome's address bar, it displays the name of the site, the stored user name, and the password for that site (as it should be).

  1. However, when I navigate to Chrome's password manager, it is completely empty (see screenshot).

Question 1: Where are my passwords?

Question 2: How can I alter passwords individually (i.e. not by erasing all of them via Chrome's 'clear browsing data' menu)?

Note 1: I am not logged in to a Google profile. Passwords are stored locally.

Note 2: This is a question regarding Google Chrome. “Why don't you switch to Firefox” is not an answer to this question. 🙂

Thank you!

Probably in one of the sqlite databases in the application support subfolder under ~/Library

@byteborg That one did the trick! 👍 It's located here:
📂 ~/Library
📂 Application Support
📂 Google
📂 Chrome
📂 Default
📄 Login Data

I will try if modifying the file (which is not encouraged according to the READ ME) will remove the outdated entry I want to get rid of.

Edit: Yes, it worked. Thank you so much! :awesome:
