    Import Chrome Passwords from a CSV file<\/h3>\n

    You can import Chrome passwords from a CSV file. To do that, you’ll need to first enable a flag (experimental setting.)<\/p>\n

    Step 1: Enable the “Password import” feature<\/h4>\n
      \n
    1. Open the chrome:\/\/flags\/#PasswordImport<\/code> address in Chrome.
      \n\"chrome<\/li>\n
    2. Set “Password import” to Enabled. This setting enables the import functionality in password settings.<\/li>\n
    3. Close all instances of Google Chrome.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
      \n

      Enable the “Password import” feature via shortcut properties<\/h4>\n

      Alternatively, you can add the switch “--enable-features=PasswordImport<\/code>” in your Chrome shortcut properties in order to enable the password import feature. For example, if your Google Chrome shortcut has the following target:<\/p>\n

      \"C:\\Program Files\\Google\\Chrome\\Application\\chrome.exe\" --profile-directory=Default<\/pre>\n
      Change that to:<\/p>\n
      \"C:\\Program Files\\Google\\Chrome\\Application\\chrome.exe\" --profile-directory=Default --enable-features=PasswordImport<\/pre>\n
      Close all Chrome instances and start a new one. Then, proceed to “Step 2” below.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
      Step 2: Importing passwords from a file<\/h4>\n
        \n
      1. Open Google Chrome and open Settings.<\/li>\n
      2. Under “Autofill”, click “Passwords”.<\/li>\n
      3. Click the “More actions” kebab menu icon (denoted by three vertical dots) near the “Saved Passwords” section.<\/li>\n
      4. Click Import<\/strong> and mention the CSV file that contains the passwords.
        \n\"chrome<\/li>\n
      5. Optionally, set the “Password import” flag back to Disabled.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
