I wish I could edit my last comment; it is some how corrupted. Here it is again (hopefully as intended)
I've gone to this extreme to completely remove Chromium: sudo rm -rf /home/username/.config/chromium ; sudo rm -rf /home/username/.cache/chromium ; sudo rm -rf /usr/lib/chromium-browser ; sudo rm -rf /etc/chromium-browser ; sudo rm -rf /usr/share/app- install/desktop/chromium* ; sudo rm -rf /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/oxide- qt/chromium* ; sudo apt-get remove chromium-browser chromium-codecs- ffmpeg-extra After reinstalling, it only remembers me for one session. After that I have to log into every website like I'd never used Chromium before; it doesn't remember any saved passwords, history, bookmarks, or form data. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to chromium-browser in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1759590 Title: Chromium-Browser Won't Sustain My Profile Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Each time I launch chromium-browser it forgets all previous sessions; it doesn't remember any saved passwords, history, bookmarks, or form data.
