**Description of the issue:** **How can this issue be reproduced?** 1. When going to password manager there’s no option to export passwords. Where the 3 dots should be is only an option to get to the Help page 2. If I go to the Settings of the password manager and choose Export passwords, I only get an option to download a file, not to export it 3. As is shown in screenshots (even if it’s in my native language Dutch) there is no option to export my passwords to a .CSV file that I can use to import into another browser **Expected result:** Expected a way to get an option that says Export Passwords, but cannot find it anywhere **Brave Version( check `About Brave`):** Versie 1.58.137 Chromium: 117.0.5938.153 (Officiële build) (64-bits) (Linux) **Additional Information:** ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/brave/original/3X/b/3/b335430a0e15d70da7426d7e8986daddda777e3a.png) ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/brave/original/3X/1/8/18db8116eae1521c00ce89fd6c235803192b55d7.png) ---

See how there’s an extra option? The top is `Passwords` and then underneath is `Settings`. If you click on `Settings` it provides you all the settings for password manager, such as you can see in screenshot below: ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/brave/original/3X/5/2/528539b96180f3b5b82a846e7213642fa3dda29d.png) ---

Yes, it states Download File, as it does with me, under Export Passwords, but where can I find that .csv file then? ---

> [@Metalfyre](#): > > but where can I find that .csv file then? Wherever you chose to save it. When you click on it, your system should prompt you to name it and save it. Such as: ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/brave/original/3X/1/c/1c99ab53d414fe4296a07d7feee12f094dde8a59.png) On Windows, it was wanting to default to saying it in `Documents`. ---

Oh, duh! So it saves the file? I thought I needed to download it first. As it states download file, I thought I needed to download it from somewhere. 🙂 ---
