@manoman,  
When you go to login and you see the pop-up, asking you to save or decline to save your password, you click `Save` and then what happens? Does the pop-up go away as it should but the password is never saved in `Settings --> Passwords`? Or does it throw an error of some kind?

Additionally, do you have any extensions installed in the browser at this time?

New to Brave, I visited Crypto Wallets, went to login, saw the pop-up asking to save or decline to save your password, and I clicked Decline. I did not create a seed phrase (nor a password) and I’m now locked out of Crypto Wallets (which I’d like to link to my Ledger wallet). Help!

☝ So did you do any of what I suggested or did you just try saving a password again the same as you have been and it worked this time?

Actually , I saved it, it worked. Next time I turned on my computer, same problem… password not being saved. I even clicked on the little key icon in the address bar and in doing so, validated the password was saved. But, to no avail, p-words not being saved.  
Are my extensions blocking the password from being saved?

@manoman,  
Can you try one more test for me to see what we’re dealing with? This time, just create a [new browser profile](https://community.brave.app/t/create-a-new-profile-to-help-troubleshoot/190807/2), save a password, then reboot your computer and see if you get the same behavior or if the password is remembered (in the new profile – make sure after rebooting the PC you load the newly created one).
