Chrome not showing Saved Passwords


My saved passwords are not being populated on sites I visit anymore. I recently downloaded Ubuntu 16 and I seem to have lost my Passwords on my newly installed Google chrome. I checked the following.

  1. I have password sync settings turned on in chrome for all my devices (Macbook Air, Samsung Phone, Windows PC).
  2. I verified that the google account is the correct one which I have always used to save and sync passwords and other chrome settings.
  3. I checked passwords.google.com, making sure it is the correct account and all the saved passwords are gone! I had about 200+ saved passwords previously. So they don't show up on the devices and on my google cloud account anymore!
  4. I should also add that along with passwords, the saved addresses are also gone from Chrome settings. The payment methods however still seem to be there.

Of course, I never explicitly deleted or ask to delete passwords from any of my devices.

How should I recover them all in Ubuntu Google Chrome?


Solution

  • I just resolved this issue using "Remove Person"

    Step 1 Go to the "Other Person Setting" by clicking your photo on the Google-chrome web browser in the rightmost corner.

    step 2 Remove person

    step 3 Login again with your Gmail account which has Saved Password details.

    step 4 Turn on Sync

    This should sync all the Google Chrome settings as well as your Saved Passwords.
