So this are the steps I took (it works) –ġ) enter chrome://settings/passwords in your browserĢ) click on the 3-dots dropdown to show the “Export passwords…” optionģ) right click the “Export passwords…” option and select “Inspect”Ĥ) you will see the line of code for the EXPORT option, called “menuExportPassword”ĥ) above it you will see the line of code for the IMPORT option, called “menuImportPassword”Ħ) in the Import code locate the word “hidden”, select it (double click) and delete itħ) click the ENTER key, and you’re all done! (you can close the inspect console)Ĩ) now, when you will click the 3-dots dropdown you will see the “Import” option as well Generally Google didn’t remove the function at all, they just hidden it. I found a really simple way to import the exported csv file back in to chrome (no flag need to be enabled, it’s pretty simple). Also, make sure to delete the password file so that it is not misplaced and accessible to some other person using your computer. Whether you do it on your own or use extensions, we strongly recommend to keep all the passwords safe and secure to protect your data. There are also many extensions for doing this stuff. We hope you have learnt how to import and export passwords in Chrome with default password manager. You can also disable auto updating in Chrome so that you will not loose any features with the later updates. There are no easy options to downgrade Chrome to lower versions as Google does not allow distributing the earlier versions. Note that Google may remove the experimental flags with the release of new version. You can disable password import again by using the -disable-features=PasswordImport parameter in the above Windows and Mac commands. Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome -enable-features=PasswordImport Press enter and Chrome will relaunch with the “Import” option enabled. If you are using Mac, open Terminal app and type the following command.
