Just had a chance to look at this, and yes, it does - 'SELECT * FROM logins' includes saved credentials that I know were added after this error began to manifest. > Also please confirm that version > last_compatible_version in that file. sqlite> SELECT * FROM meta; mmap_status|-1 last_compatible_version|33 version|35 sqlite> > When you enter a site for which you have a password saved, does the key > button appear in the address bar, as in the attached picture?

Ok. I tried running 'chromium --password-store=basic' and still see nothing in chrome://settings/passwords. This also seems to have been a good way of logging me out of existing sessions in my browser for some reason. > And one more thing worth trying is to export your passwords, that is a > button under the vertical dots button in that page.

The 'Export passwords' menu option is greyed out. -- 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/2011281 Title: chromium snap upgrade "lost" my passwords Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: On upgrade to chromium snap revision 2333 (now since upgraded to 2367), I received a window with a notice about password migration: "Password storage via the Gnome keyring has been fixed, but for it to work, you have to rename your old ~/snap/chromium/common/chromium/Default/Login Data file so that a new, working one can replace it." I don't remember if I did this or not. However, when I went to use my saved passwords in chromium today, I found that they were absent. Tracking down the data in the chromium profile, I found that there was a ~/snap/chromium/common/chromium/Default/Login Data.old containing all of my passwords, and a ~/snap/chromium/common/chromium/Default/Login Data containing a single password entry for a site that I happened to have created a new login for in the past few days. That's not a very user-friendly experience on upgrade.
