<![CDATA[Missing settings and flags]]>Hey guys, this may have been posted about to death but I'm running into some issues switching my browser from chrome to opera gx. I've followed several different sets of directions just trying to import my passwords from chrome and enabling chromecast support with no luck. The options to enable in flags neither of those two are there no matter how I search for them. Even when I tried the command prompt running it didn't want to take that either. Any help would be great, thanks in advance!

Also in the 94th chromium code this flag was added to this list: flag-never-expire-list.json

Nice!

Chromium removing the flag

I think it will be interesting for you.
This flag is not removed from Chromium's code, it just expired automatically. It's a mistake of chromium developers, they forgot to renew it. This has been fixed in Chromium 94, but they renamed this flag. It was #passwordimport now in chromium 94 #password-import
Sample code for the 93rd Chromium for this flag. flag-metadata.json
Sample code for the 94rd Chromium for this flag. flag-metadata.json
Also in the 94th chromium code this flag was added to this list: flag-never-expire-list.json

However, the old --enable-features=PasswordImport switch still works even in Chrome Canary 96.0.4656.0

Example:

"C:\Program Files\Opera\launcher.exe" --enable-features=PasswordImport

The import passwords flag was removed by Chromium. For now you can get it back by enabling the flag to temporarily unexpire m92 flags.
