##Introduction
A web browser is an important element that enables easy access to the Internet, where you can work online, receive data and enjoy using web resources in a convenient format. Google Chrome is one of the most popular browsers in the world, along with Opera, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Internet Explorer and Microsoft Edge. A simple and laconic browser interface is combined with high-speed processing and displaying web contents, which lets users send multiple network requests without reducing overall performance.

To improve the level of security, passwords used for various network resources should include complicated combinations of digits, letters and special symbols. It’s quite difficult to memorize numerous passwords to all those resources you’d like to use on the web, and that is why Google Chrome comes with a convenient password manager inside. You can keep all your passwords inside your browser and each of them will be applied automatically when you sigh it to this or another website. Below, we will describe in detail how to manage all saved passwords in Google Chrome.

##How to save a password in Google Chrome?
The main concept behind Google Chrome is minimalism, so its controls and access to various integrated features are very simple. The first step to take before you do anything with the passwords is to make sure that the option to save them is enabled in your browser settings. To find out if this option is on, follow the steps described below.

Step 1. Open Google Chrome on your computer.

Step 2. In the upper right corner of the browser window, next to the address bar and buttons of the extension which can be added according to your personal preferences, find and click on the Current user button which looks like a small icon with a picture from your Google account, or as a typical human silhouette.

Step 3. Select Passwords button from the context menu that appears.

Note: You can access this settings page directly by typing chrome://settings/passwords in the address bar and pressing the Enter key.

Step 4. In the new page, find the line Offer to save passwords and set the corresponding switch to on position (the switch color will change from the neutral grey to active blue). If you haven’t made any changes in the password section of your browser before, this option is enabled by default so you don’t need to do anything to have your passwords saved automatically, in fact.

Step 5. Now use Google Chrome to visit a website where sign-in is required, enter your account data and compete the sign-in procedure. When the form is submitted, Google Chrome will display a pop-up system message offering to save the login and password which you have used to sign in to this specific website. Click Save to have Google Chrome remember the information. If you choose Never instead, this website will be added to the list of Never saved. In the next part of this article, we will explore how to remove a website from that list.

Now that your login and password are saved, next time you try to sign in to this website Google Chrome will fill into the sign-in form automatically.

If you registered and saved several accounts for a specific website, click on the login field and select from the menu the one you would like to use.

##How to remove a website from the Never Saved list?
If you accidentally hit the Never button when Google Chrome offered you to save a password for quick access in the future, such website will be put to the exclusion list, and Google Chrome will no longer offer you to save your login and password from this specific resource. However, you can remove a website from that list, and if you try to sign in again, the browser will offer saving the password. The sequence of steps is neither long nor difficult:

Step 1. Open Google Chrome on your computing device.

Step 2. In the browser window, click on Current user button (earlier, we have already showed you how to find it) and open the context menu.

Step 3. Find Passwords.

Step 4. In the password settings page, scroll down to Never Saved. This list contains all websites which are excluded from the password saving option and for which Google Chrome will neither offer nor perform the password saving procedure.

Step 5. Examine the list for the website you are interested in and which was accidentally marked as unavailable for password saving, and click on the button Delete this item which is located at the end of the website line and fashioned like a letter Х.

The entry will be removed from the exclusions list immediately. When you visit that website again and enter your account data to sign in, Google Chrome will show the system message offering to save the login and password for future use.

If you use a password to sign in to the operating system on your computer, Windows will ask you to provide your account password or PIN, depending on your preferred settings, to unlock system protection before you can view the hidden password.
