Windows 10: How to turn off Windows security asking me for a password to see my Google Chrome passwords

How can I turn off Windows security asking me for a password to see my Google Chrome passwords. This is a real inconvenience.

:)

 

Google Chrome ask for Windows 10 password to view Chrome passwords.

Hello Dennis18_Se,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

To have a better clarity on the issue and guide you accordingly, respond to the questions listed below:

1. Are you using a Microsoft account or a Local account in sign in to that account?
   
2. May I know if your computer is connected to a Domain (organization) network?
   
3. Are you able to access websites using other web browsers?
   

Google Chrome will save login usernames and passwords and will automatically complete the sign-in fields for you the next time you visit the websites. It’s a good security measure added by Chrome.

If you do not want Chrome to ask for your Windows login password when you access, you can either remove the Windows user login password from your account or disable the password manager re-authentication feature in Chrome. To disable the password
manager re-authentication follow the below method:

• Open Google Chrome browser and type chrome://flags in the address bar and press Enter.
  
• You get a list of features available, scroll down to see flag labeled
  Disable Password Manager Re-authentication.
  
• Click on the Enable link below its feature description to enable the feature.
  
• Click on the button labeled Relaunch Now to restart chrome with new settings.
  
  

Hope it helps.

Google Chrome asks for Windows 10 password to view Chrome passwords.

It is 100% the same topic and the same issue:

Redirecting

The problem is though:

#1 Google or the Google members don't respond to Google related subjects.

#2 They updated chrome://flags and "Disable Password Manager Re-authentication".

I searched for "disable" and "disable password" and "password manager" and "reauthentication" and "authentication"

and whatnot. No result. This means. While I am asking and somebody might be responding. Somebody

at Google changes the feature.

#3 I don't even need to use a password to log in, because I turned that feature off in Windows 10. Only the

Ctrl + Alt + Del is for me necessary to log-in. Chrome on my laptop doesn't recognize that though.

On my PC I solved this via a PIN but that is still ****, since I am 200% sure that I don't need a pin,

a password or a fingerprint / DNA sample to see my own password's. Even though it is a security

hazard.

I still need a solution for the 24th of May 2020 though.

P.S. I'm sorry for the sucker who is forced to trial-n-error and wade-through dead and locked threads from 2020 in 2021.
