I recently came across a situation where I had to delete all the passwords Saved in my Google Chrome. There are more than 300 accounts and passwords saved in the Google Chrome browser that I no longer use. So I want it to delete them.
But I found that there is no way to delete all of them at once if I had to delete them I have to go through each of them manually.
The ability to select multiple passwords to delete is only available in Chrome on iPhone. So if you have an Android mobile were passwords are saved and you want to delete them, you can continue following this guide.
I found a workaround, that saved me hours of manual work. And I am sharing that workaround with you today.
