HI!

How can I export my passwords from Edge for Android without having to synch it. My Win-11 Edge deleted all my passwords, but they are still saved in my android App.

    Hello, fonuto

    Welcome to the Microsoft Community.

    Hello, thank you for your feedback here on your issue, it seems that you are experiencing edge password synchronization.

    Unfortunately, as of now, Microsoft Edge on Android does not have a built-in feature to export passwords directly. Passwords are securely stored in the app and there is no simple export feature like the one available on the desktop version of Edge. However, there are several methods you can try to transfer or recover passwords without relying on synchronization:

    1. Manually copy your passwords

    Open the Edge app.

    Tap the three-dot menu in the lower-right corner.

    Go to Settings > Passwords.

    On this page, you can see a list of saved passwords. Click on each entry to view and copy the password. Although this way is a bit tedious, you can recover your passwords one by one.

    1. Using Password Manager

    If you don't want to sync your Edge passwords to the cloud, consider transferring them to a third-party password manager. Many password managers offer the ability to import your browser passwords, after which you can also export them to a file.

    You can manually copy the username and password by opening each site in Edge where your passwords are saved and depositing them into the password manager. While this is a manual process, it ensures that your passwords are saved in a more manageable format.

    If you're okay with using the sync feature temporarily, you can enable sync on both your Android device and Edge for Windows 11. Once the password synchronization is complete, you can export your passwords through Edge for desktop:

    Open Edge for Windows 11.

    Go to Settings > Profile > Passwords.

    Next to Saved Passwords, click the three-dot menu and select Export Passwords.

    This will let you export your passwords to a CSV file that you can transfer to a password manager or other system.

    Once you have finished exporting, you can turn off the synchronization feature.

    In addition, if it is an anomaly of the computer edge, and in the Android side or other platforms is the password record, then we recommend that you try to log out of the account on the computer side, and then log in again, in the Settings > Profile click on the manual synchronization to restore.

    Best regards
