Avast not saving passwords
« on: June 19, 2021, 10:15:34 PM »
Avast is not giving an option to save passwords. It seems like every other week one or more of the options isn't working. Last week it was the video downloader which is now working. Adware hasn't worked for at least a month.

Hi,
Can you please provide us with more details? Perhaps you can describe the steps you take before you encounter this issue, and include a screenshot.
Please see this article on how to generate a screenshot. https://support.avast.com/en-ww/article/Create-screenshot

I don't take any particular steps to save passwords. "Offer to save passwords" is enabled in settings and "Password Manager" is enabled in the Security and Privacy centre. The problem is that Avast does not open a window with the option to save a password on many sites. One site in particular is  my Avast account.

Hi,

Can you please try to re-add the extension?
Open Avast Anti-Virus and go to Privacy>Passwords>Settings>Browser Integration
