Chrome 78 update at least to 78.0.3904.108 to access saved passwords

Posted by jpluimers on 2019/11/27

If you have Chrome 78 before version 78.0.3904.108, there is a high chance you cannot access (some of) your saved passwords.

This has been fixed in 78.0.3904.108: [WayBack] Chrome 78 update has removed all saved passwords for over 50 users – Google Chrome Enterprise Help

Google is aware of an issue causing saved passwords not to appear after upgrading to Chrome 78. Even though the passwords are not showing up in the UI, they haven’t been lost or deleted.

…

The fix is included in version 78.0.3904.108 which is now pushing at 25% for Mac/Win/Android and 100% for Linux (and will ramp over the next few days based on the field issues and feedback).

Using Chrome on Windows with a different proxy server than the system one (which is used by Internet Explorer)

Posted by jpluimers on 2019/10/25

By default, Chrome uses the same proxy server as Internet Explorer: the system one that your Chrome settings page accesses from chrome://settings/search#proxy through this command-line call:

"C:\Windows\system32\rundll32.exe" C:\Windows\system32\shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL C:\Windows\system32\inetcpl.cpl,,4

There is no GUI way inside Chrome to change this, but there is a command-line parameter: --proxy-server="ipaddress:port"

So create a new shortcut to Chrome, then you can change it.

This comes in very handy if you want to test

  • some sessions through for instance Internet Explorer going through HTTP Fiddler (that defaults at localhost:8888)
  • other sessions through Cntlm (that defaults to localhost:3128)

Some background information:

Printing WordPress receipts in Chrome resulting in strangely accented text turned out to be a Chrome issue

Posted by jpluimers on 2018/12/02

This appeared to be a Chrome thing: [WayBack] Jeroen Pluimers at Twitter: “@wordpressdotcom not sure what goes wrong with billing, but the printed html has odd domain characters. The viewed HTML is OK, but I cannot print that because printing garbles it. I can DM you the receipt links. Similar for the date which becomes unreadable (the IRS dislikes it).…”
