How Share Chrome Passwords Between Microsoft Edge and Firefox

If you’re sticking to a single browser, you don’t have to remember all of your account passwords. For instance, if you’re a Chrome user, Chrome will remember your passwords and credentials. Hence you can easily save and access that password and even sync to your other PCs using the account you used as your primary chrome browser account.

But if you want to use other browsers like Firefox, for example, you have to manually input those passwords, which is an exhausting task.

Thankfully, you can easily share Chrome passwords between Microsoft Edge and Firefox browser without losing any data and with no risk of privacy.

Firefox actually moved the option and hidden it into the bookmarks manager. Now you can easily access the setting by following these steps:

Open Bookmark Manager (Library) by pressing Ctrl+Shift+B shortcut.

Click on Import and Backup at the top of the Window.

Wait for it to finish importing. When it’s over, click on Finish.

Once that’s over, you should be able to log in without entering a password (because of autofill).

Edge

On the Microsoft Edge browser, you can see this option within settings. Just follow these steps, and you can import passwords from Chrome to Edge.

Tap on More options ( keyboard shortcut: Alt+X) in the Edge browser and Click on Settings.

Although if you use both browsers, you cannot be wasting your time on importing and exporting data within browsers. This process consumes time, and you need something that can work in realtime. For this specific purpose, we can use any well-reputed password manager services that offer plugins for both Chrome, Firefox as well as Edge.

This is a free and popular password manager extension, trusted by many browser users. Even though it’s free, this offers great synchronization between multiple browsers like Chrome, Firefox, and Edge. Of course, you can choose any password manager you prefer.

Once you’ve downloaded the manager, the steps are simple.

  1. Right-click on the extension icon at the top of the browser.
  2. Click on create an account and complete creating an account.
