SAVED IN THE BROWSER
Recover passwords saved in the browser.
If you’re a Google Chrome user, you probably use your browser to access a variety of websites, social media, e-commerce, and more. To make logging into these websites easier, Chrome offers the ability to save passwords for your accounts. That way, when you visit a website in the future, Chrome can automatically enter your password for you, making signing in faster and more convenient. But what if you forget one of these saved passwords?
Don’t worry, there is an easy way to recover passwords saved in Google Chrome. In this article, we’ll walk you through the steps to access your saved passwords and recover forgotten ones.
Before we begin, it’s important to point out that if you have data sync enabled with your Google Account, you can access your saved passwords on all devices associated with your Google Account. So if you forgot the password saved on your computer, you can recover it from another device. However, if you haven’t enabled sync, you may need to take a few additional steps to recover your password.
Here’s how to recover passwords saved in Google Chrome:
- Open Google Chrome on your computer.
- Click on the three-dot menu button in the upper right corner of the browser window.
- Select “Settings” from the drop-down menu.
- Scroll down to “Password” and click on it.
- Under the “Saved passwords” section, you’ll see a list of all the accounts Chrome has saved passwords for. To view passwords, click the three lines next to the account name and select “Show.”
- Chrome will ask you to enter your account password to verify that you are authorized to access saved passwords.
- After entering the password, the saved password will be displayed in clear text.
If you can’t access your password using this method, you may need to try to recover it via the website or app of the service you’re trying to access. For example, if you have forgotten your Facebook password, you can click on the “Forgot your password?” on the Facebook login page and follow the instructions to reset your password.
Alternatively, if you have synced your Google Account data with Chrome, you can access your saved passwords on all devices associated with your Google Account
