It occurs on my G40, which has enabled no-password login https://tech.hohoweiya.xyz/Linux/asAserver/#_4. When I launch Chrome, it pops up the following window. image

szcf-weiya commented 3 years ago
$ locate google-chrome.desktop
/usr/share/applications/google-chrome.desktop
$ sudo vi /usr/share/applications/google-chrome.desktop 

add --password-store=basic on the line

Exec=/usr/bin/google-chrome-stable --password-store=basic %U

the reason is that

basic is chrome's builtin password storage, but it stores password's in plain text. This is why chrome defaults to using the Ubuntu keyring. They store password encrypted. source: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2377036&p=13708937#post13708937
