Export all Saved Passwords from Google Chrome

Google Chrome lets you save your passwords in its password store. While this is a convenient function, it may not be the most trustworthy one. If you trust Google and only use one computer, this may be fine. However, should you try to move your passwords into a service like 1Password, Last Pass or the KeePass application, you will figure out a small problem: The dialog to access your passwords allows you to view only one password at a time:

Chrome saved passwords

Depending on your version of Chrome, you can enter chrome://settings/passwords or chrome://settings-frame/passwords into the address bar of your browser.

A much faster approach is to change flag for the import/export password feature. To go directly to the setting, enter chrome://flags/#password-import-export into the address bar of your browser:

Chrome saved password enable

Change the value to "enabled", restart Chrome and reopen the password manager. This time you will have a button to export (and import) passwords as a csv-file: Chrome saved passwords export

The export file has these 4 columns with the name of the site, its URL, your username and password: Chrome saved passwords CVS export

This file can be imported to the password managers mentioned above. Don’t forget to delete the file as soon as the import has succeeded.
