It&#8217;s quite a shock and a lot of dismay. Today when I went to sites I visit often I noticed the Username and Password field weren&#8217;t automatically filled out like normal.

Well I found a solution <a href=\"http:\/\/groups.google.com\/a\/googleproductforums.com\/forum\/#!category-topic\/chrome\/report-a-problem-and-get-troubleshooting-help\/e4gabKmmMOE\">HERE<\/a>\u00a0on a Google Groups discussion board. It seems to have worked.<\/p>\n<p>This is for a Mac. What you do is first quit Chrome. Then you go to Applications&gt;Utilities&gt;Keychain Open up your Keychain Access program and all of your passwords should be in there. Mine were. Then you re-open Chrome and all the passwords and sites are re-populated in the Password Manager in Chrome. At least it worked for me. Whew! The Passwords in Chrome are in Preferences&gt;Personal Stuff&gt;Manage Saved Passwords.<\/p>\n<p>Hope that helps.
