• Avast Passwords For Mac' To Access Your Chrome Folder Management

I recently migrated from Windows7 to Kubuntu 10.0.4. In many ways, I'm loving the change. (I never knew it could be such a seemless process to write/test scripts!)

One of the few things that is causing me any hangup is that none of the passwords that were saved in my browser are available (obviously, since it's a completely separate installation). Is it possible to export my passwords from the Windows instance of Chrome and then import them into the Linux version?

• See: Tap View and manage saved passwords at passwords.google.com. Delete: Tap the password you want to remove. At the top, tap Delete. Export: Tap More Export Passwords. To clear all your saved passwords, clear browsing data and select 'Passwords.' Stop saving passwords. By default, Chrome offers to save your password. You can turn this option off or on at any time. On your Android phone or tablet, open the Chrome app.
• Note: Before you continue to recover Chrome's lost data, using Shadow Copies, you should know that Google Chrome stores all your profile data (bookmarks, passwords, history, extensions, settings) in 'User Data' folder at this location on your computer.
• The inbuilt password guardian monitors all passwords 24/7 and alerts you if the password is weak. Also, you can save all your logins & passwords under Login menu to quickly log on to any website with 1-click. Similarly, you can store all your credit card numbers on Avast Password which reduces the trouble of reviving credit card numbers.

To back up your profile(s), copy the Default profile folder and any numbered Profile folders in the UserData folder on Windows, the Chrome folder on Mac OS X El Capitan, or the google-chrome folder in Linux to an external hard drive or a cloud service.

As Neal said, the folder User Data is the one to look for. If you want a software solution try the extension Lastpass (or at the Google site). It allows you to save and restore password in Google Chrome as well as in Firefox, IE and Safari.

You can also use this standalone tool called chromepass http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/chromepass.html

ChromePass is a small password recovery tool that allows you to view the user names and passwords stored by Google Chrome Web browser.

There is a option to export into your keepass password manager too.

Note: If you feel unsafe to use third-party tools, get script from here https://github.com/hassaanaliw/chromepass and run yourself.

Enable password export in Chrome by going to chrome://flags/#password-import-export, then you can export it to CSV file.

I found a decision how to show all your passwords from Chromium. Tested on Ubuntu 14.04 and Chromium: Version 40.0.2214.111 Ubuntu 14.04 (64-bit). I used js script found early in search.

Output maked in format:url login pass

Steps:

1. Open in Chromium browser link to Chrome password manager: chrome://settings-frame/passwords

2. Open console (F12) and insert this js code:

3. After step 2 you will see all your passwords in Chromium Password manager Dialog.

4. And now insert this part of js code in console:

5. Now you see all your passwords in format i described early.

6. Write script on any language to import your passwords in browser like FireFox :)

7. Profit.

Github: https://github.com/megmage/chrome-export-passwords

p.s.I Try to use all parts of code together, but it isnt work :(

update:Chrome API based version in GitHub.

You could try XMarks.

I'm fairly sure that if you just copied the profile (ie the stuff in C:UsersUsernameAppDataLocalGoogleChromeUser DataDefault)from Windows to Linux, you would get everything working correctly, without any export/ import.

Export

1. Go to chrome://flags/#password-import-export page (paste into address bar).
2. Enable Password import and export and restart web browser.

3. Go to chrome://settings/passwords, you should see the Export button.

   Alternatively run this script in DevTools Console (JS):

4. Export into CSV and verify the content of it.
