Юлия (ID: 0000008c08b0937b) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 05/01/2021 удалил все сохраненные пароли! deleted all passwords from my acc google!!!

Lutz Hohle (ID: 0000007579d0c795) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 06/01/2016 No warning, nothing. clicking the app button (to find out how it works), directly deletes all browser data. So this app is as bad as a virus. I installed it, because I am developing on an app which uses indexedDB as storage. so i wanted to use this tool to delete the indexedDB for one domain. but it simply deleted passwords & co. for all sites. and the delete was also immediately synced to my tablet. so i lot the data also there. As luckily as i was, my android mobile was out of battery. so i took the SIM card out of the device and i tuned off my Wifi router at home. so i was able toy turn on the mobile without the risk of syncing the data also away from this device. So while the mobile was completely offline, i turned off sync in the android chrome browser. Then i turned the syncing on again. And i also turned on wifi. So it started a new sync from my mobile to the cloud and from there to chrome on my mac. So i was able to restore my passwords & co.

David H. Mason (ID: 0000002a50a3c7ad) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 05/23/2016 The description says it will clear all data or a site's data. It says "one click" too, but that could mean many things. Clicking the trashcan instantly clears all your browser data without confirmation. Considering how much is stored with a browser, this is a terrible idea.
