Google Chrome browser is the latest
entry into the ongoing web browser's war which is mainly ruled by IE
and Firefox. The word Google behind the Chrome has given it lot of
hype and popularity than any other browser got in such a short
duration. However some of the salient features such as searching from the
same address bar, thumbnails of top sites, private browsing etc
makes it stand apart from other browsers in the market.
Like other browsers Chrome also has built-in login password manager
functionality which keeps track of the login secrets of all visited
websites. Whenever user logins to any website, he/she will be
prompted to save the credentials for later use and if user chooses
so, then the username & passwords will be stored in internal login
database. So next time onwards whenever user visits that website,
he/she will be automatically logged in using these stored
credentials which saves hassle of entering the credentials every
time.
ChromePasswordDecryptor helps in easily and instantly
recovering all such stored passwords from Chrome Login database.

Chrome stores all the sign-on secrets into the internal database
file called 'Web data' in the current user profile
folder. Newer version has moved the login passwords related database
into new file named 'Login Data'.
This database file
is in SQLite format and contains number of tables storing different kind
of data such as auto complete, search keyword, ie7logins etc in addition
to login secrets.
The logins table mainly contains the information about sign-on secrets
such as website URL, username, password fields etc. All this information
is stored in the clear text except passwords which are in encrypted
format.
ChromePasswordDecryptor loads the secrets from logins table and then
decrypts the password for each of the websites stored by Chrome.
