When using Chrome without being signed in how can I export the saved sites credentials/passwords along with the most visited sites that popup on address bar or as a default short cut in the homescreen and in a way that can be imported to another Chrome.

If one signs in, would the all the data saved so far when using with no account be merged with the account?

You can export your passwords as a CSV file even without signing in.

Do this :

  • Run Chrome
  • Click the three-dots menu icon and select Settings
  • Click Autofill and passwords
  • Click Google Password Manager
  • Click Settings on the left
  • Under Export passwords, click Download file
  • Type your Windows password and click OK
  • Select folder and file-name to store the data and click Save.

This will export a CSV file with the following data columns : name, url, username, password and note.

Auto-fill data is stored in an SQL Lite Database, so you need either to copy the file itself or use an SQL viewer to export the SQL table.

See the post
Is there a way to find where autocomplete data on Chrome was initially entered?.

  • Yes that seems to work for passwords. But I don't see any option to save the auto fills

  • The csv can it be imported again? Also If one signs in, would the all the data saved so far when using with no account be merged with the account?

  • You can just try it, but it's only logical that duplicate imported entries are deleted.

    I have never tried it, but nothing is sure as regarding software. If worried, ensure you have an export of these passwords.
