In reply to Alison Brelsford. Thanks - I eventually figured this out in the end!

Use Ctrl+F to find the word Password in the list – there’s Import Passwords and Export Passwords about half way down. It has worked for me!

This does work. However, with the new version, the export/import buttons are in the the three dot tab under the save passwords to other devices section. Just took a minute to figure it out….

You must not value your privacy to allow google to store your passwords somewhere in the cloud, for malicious hackers to have fun with them.
But lots of other folks do. ;)

If you don’t wish to save your password online, here’s a simple method to import/export it to a file on a portable flash/thumb drive.
In Chrome 65.x the import/export flags have changed to:

chrome://flags/#PasswordImport
chrome://flags/#PasswordExport

Select “Enabled” then close down ALL chrome windows and relaunch it, and you’ll be able to import/export your passwords to a file on a portable flash/thumb drive.
This way it’s not out there for hackers to grab them. ;)
