I agree that it is not user friendly, especially in this case where
things have gone wrong. At least the back up file served its purpose and
you could restore your passwords.
That notice only appears when the user has the password-manager-service
interface connected and no Login Data.old file is present.
Do you remember manually connecting the interface, or anything out of
the ordinary you did with Chromium (e.g. exporting/importing configuration)?
At this point though, we might just be better off getting rid of that,
since the mentioned fix was released about two months ago and, because
of the snap forcing upgrades, the transition should have been done for
practically all users already.
Thanks for the report, Steve.
