How to Check For Weak Passwords in Google Chrome
By Timothy Tibbettson 06/15/2023 |
If you manage your passwords and logins with Google Chrome, it can monitor those passwords and let you know if a password is weak and protect you from being easily hacked.
You must have Offer to save passwords turned on.
Video tutorial:
Click the three dots in the top-right corner and click Settings.
Click on Passwords.
Click on Check passwords.
If a weak password is found, you will see the website and the reason. For example, in our case, it noticed a weak password that can easily be guessed (they are right).
You can click on Change password, and you are given the option to Show, Edit, or Remove the password.
You'll have to log in with your Windows account before proceeding.
Your best bet here is to click on Edit password to load the website with the problem so you can change your password.
While you've heard it before, please be sure to use safe passwords. Write down your passwords or get a free password manager. I don't know 95% of my own passwords. That's how it should be.
