| Re: Disable the "Show saved password" | dwight.stegall | 8/7/09 10:23 AM | Stop friends prying eyes. You have to be the Administrator of the computer you are using for the following to work. Password protect (don't use a name or number your friends know) your user account on your computer to keep them out. Then set up a sec |
| Re: Disable the "Show saved password" | johnny86 | 9/30/09 8:18 AM | But I don't want to create another account, I just want to password protect the part where Chrome shows the passwords! Like Firefox does! |
| Re: Disable the "Show saved password" | cdprater | 10/1/09 6:39 AM | I absolutely and complete agree that this option needs to either be completely disabled, or at least password protected itself. I personally vote for removing this "feature." I know of NO other application or system that will ever show passwords. |
| Re: Disable the "Show saved password" | Mahnas92 | 10/2/09 9:25 AM | Now do u think that someone from the developers are watching these kind of threads? How do I report such a "bug"? |
| Re: Disable the "Show saved password" | cdprater | 10/2/09 12:11 PM | I'm not sure if they monitor or not, at the time this was the only way I could find to report a bug. I've since found the "Report bug or broken website..." option within Chrome itself. I submitted this page with my original post. Hopefully that wi |

| Re: Disable the "Show saved password" | QQFarmer | 10/4/09 4:44 PM | We definitely need a master password to protect our precious passwords. Google, can you hear me? |
| Re: Disable the "Show saved password" | Bapabooiee | 10/4/09 6:18 PM | If it offers anything, here's what a Google employee said to me regarding this issue: "We realize it's been a long standing topic of conversation but there are some nuances in the situation that make it a little tricky. A master password could help |
| Re: Disable the "Show saved password" | Mahnas92 | 10/5/09 10:50 PM | @Bapabooiee Well, that is if the passwords HAS a Master password. but now it havent, so if your computer is stolen by a 10 years old or by an old guy, and not a hacker, even he/she can see you passwords... And I for example use google chrome 99% of m |
| Re: Disable the "Show saved password" | Rohela | 10/6/09 2:21 AM | hey its a nice feature.. in any case you forget password you can find from chrome.. For security just password protect that TAB.. in that case this will show passwords of sites if you entered right one for chrome... |
| Re: Disable the "Show saved password" | onlyrey | 2/22/10 9:36 AM | Agree that the "Show Password" option should be protected, regardless of who is the OS system administrator. Most people don't have their computers password protected. If you use Chrome and somebody steals your computer, they would just go to the " |
| Re: Disable the "Show saved password" | lollopop | 3/17/10 1:24 AM | I consider to back to Opera if Chrome can not solve this problem in this 30 days time. This 'feature' is really annoying. |
| Re: Disable the "Show saved password" | Mahnas92 | 3/17/10 2:42 AM | Well, I've heard of bugs becoming features for many, but in this case this meant-to-be-feature becomes a bug for me =P When are the Developers gonna say something? =O =/ |
| Re: Disable the "Show saved password" | caver_tim | 3/17/10 4:19 AM | Firefox has this feature. It does have an option to password protect it, but I believe it is not turned on by default. Letting other people have access to your PC has other security risks including but not limited tothey can see the passwords to your |

| Re: Disable the "Show saved password" | caver_tim | 3/18/10 2:21 AM | one of my banks asks for 3 random characters from my password, the other one uses drop down menus to select 3 random numbers from my PIN. Both of these mean that i can never save the password for my online banking, and protects against keyloggers.Eve |
| Re: Disable the "Show saved password" | Mahnas92 | 3/18/10 4:18 AM | Well, I wasn't speaking about saving passwords in that example, If you type your password manually on an unsecure connection to your bank, there is tools that can "snap" up your account details/passwords... I just made up another scenario with other |

| Re: Disable the "Show saved password" | jchiu09 | 4/13/10 1:26 PM | Yea, just because Firefox has this stupid feature, it doesn't mean it's a good idea. Try to be better Google. Why would you make it so easy for other people to see your passwords, and not only that, but ALL of your passwords? |
| Re: Disable the "Show saved password" | deflime | 4/14/10 2:25 PM | I agree that it is an unusual "feature;" though it does give me a reality check about security on the internet. The odds of someone using your computer with the intent of checking your saved passwords in Chrome is extremely minute compared the length |
| Re: Disable the "Show saved password" | WhipeOut | 4/17/10 9:22 AM | How about Master Password protecting EACH not all of the passwords? (I mean putting passwords on passwords lol xD) |

| Re: Disable the "Show saved password" | caver_tim | 4/29/10 2:04 AM | interesting.I've had a look at the password file.

| Re: Disable the "Show saved password" | Breatnac | 5/6/10 4:26 AM | I find Master Password very useful on Firefox, they only reason that I do not use Chrome for my default browser is that insecurity of the "Show Saved Passwords" option. What were they thinking? |
