Google Chrome has a new feature called on-device encryption that secures your passwords by encoding them on your device before saving to Google Password Manager. The unique encryption key ensures only the user can access this information. If the key is lost, the passwords could be lost too. The encryption can be set up within the browser's settings, and once enabled, only the original device with the specific passkey, fingerprint, or PIN will be able to access the encrypted information.

The new security feature prompts users to authenticate through Windows Hello each time they access saved passwords, thereby strengthening security particularly on shared devices. This guide provides clear instructions, including navigating Chrome settings, where to find and toggle the option on or off.

Users must authenticate themselves with their Windows password to complete the process.
