Check “Chrome Windows” for a notification

Let’s make sure it’s you and sync any passwords you already added.

We’ll finish setting up after we get your approval on Chrome Windows. 

Didn’t get it? 

What the hell does this mean?  I never get any notifications. So, I'm confused and can't access password.

Hi jendavisfromca, I'd be happy to look into this for you!

 

Are you trying to access Dropbox Passwords on your browser, or mobile app? Also is it a new installation by any chance?

 

Could you send me some screenshots (without disclosing any personal info) that describe, and show what you mentioned? 

 

Keep me posted!

      Hi jendavisfromca, could you maybe clear your browser's cache or try another browser and let us know how it goes?

       

      What about the recovery words Dropbox sent you, when setting up Passwords? Do you happen to have them, by any chance?
