Google chrome keeps asking for the password for the default keyring. I did edit the launcher and changed the command to /usr/bin/google-chrome-stable %U --password-store=basic
But it doesnt work. Did work without a problem on LL 4.8 and earlier.


Anyone got an idea what might be causing this and how to solve it?

[member=3473]TMG1961[/member]  Chrome has done for sometime, typically leave PW blank and enter/continue past (2 prompts if I recall)..

Or if you have entered a PW and want to clear...


Quote:Open a terminal and do:

Code:
rm ~/.local/share/keyrings/*

Now open Chrome, if it asks you for your password, do not enter one choose Continue each time and ignore any warnings.

I dont want to keep hitting enter everytime i open chrome. That isnt a solution to the problem. The addition of --password-store=basic worked untill LL 5.0
