Lockwise, How do I print out a list of my passwords?

I need a hard copy to transfer most of my passwords. Lockwise was installed on a recent update and I can only see one password at a time. Previously I could show all passwords and screenshot.

Hello dindypig,

Would you do this please :

Type in the address bar :

chrome://passwordmgr/content/passwordManager.xul

And press Enter (maximize the window).

At the bottom you will see the "Show Passwords" button.

You can now either take a screenshot or copy and paste the page in e.g. a Word document.

If you have many logins, you will have to scroll down till you get the rest of your logins on a new page.

Would that work for you ?

In the event that the passwords information is lost, you should record all information in a separate text file somewhere else on your hard drive, or written down. You can easily copy and paste if you need to do so. If you are concerned about someone else looking at that file, you can compress it using a password.

If a backup is sufficient then you can save a copy of the two file logins.json (encrypted logins) and key4.db (key file). If you place these two files in a Firefox profile folder then this will restore these logins.

You can use the button on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page to go to the current Firefox profile folder or use the about:profiles page.

I use Firefox but tried to find them thru the Chrome drop down option to find only a couple of saved passwords. I nearly skipped passed your reply but thought I'd give it a go anyway as all the other repliers suggestions went over my head. (thanks for the replies tho') Well I'll go t' foot o' my stairs, It worked perfectly. Thank you McCoy. A cut and paste is worth a thousand command lines.

This solution does not work for me. When I enter chrome://passwordmgr/content/passwordManager.xul

I get this "Firefox can’t find the file at jar:file:///C:/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox/omni.ja!/chrome/toolkit/content/passwordmgr/passwordManager.xul."

Hello   Nulllsland,

Since December 2019 the extension   "xul"   has changed to   "xhtml",   so now you'll have to enter in the address bar :

chrome://passwordmgr/content/passwordManager.xhtml

WHAT IF I DON'T HAVE CHROME?

more options

starting today I find that FIREFOX LOCKED ME OUT OF SEEING MY PASSWORDS. I used my Firefox password to sign in to this forum but when I try to use it to see my stored passwords Firefox says its wrong.

I DON'T USE CHROME and now FIREFOX HAS ESSENTIALLY LOCKED ME OUT OF OVER 100 SITES I VISIT BECAUSE I CAN'T GET MY OWN PASSWORDS.

more options

Do not confuse the chrome:// protocol with the Google Chrome browser. Firefox uses the "chrome://" protocol to access its internal files and use chrome in other cases like userChrome.css (no relation with Google Chrome).
