Look Up or Back Up Google Chrome Saved Passwords

Google Chrome saves passwords used in web forms and log ins. You can manage these saved passwords as well as view them (to jog your memory) from within Google Chrome’s Options menu.

  1. Launch Google Chrome. Click on the Wrench icon in the top-right and Click Options.
  2. Click the Personal Stuff tab. Scroll down to Passwords and Click Managed saved passwords…
  3. This will display all of the passwords that Google Chrome has saved. When you first view them, the password values will be masked. But you can display them by selecting an entry and Clicking Show.

Backing Up Google Chrome Saved Passwords

Close all Google Chrome windows. Then, navigate to the Google Chrome AppData folder in Windows Explorer. Usually at: C:\Users\[yourusername]\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default

Locate the Login Data file and copy it to your preferred backup location.
