Chrome to Firefox Import, passwords missing
Am in the process of trying to switch to Firefox from Chrome. Followed directions from https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/import-bookmarks-google-chrome#w_start-the-firefox-import-process
Import Wizard claims success. But I am missing a bunch of passwords in Firefox that don't seem to have imported from Chrome, despite the tool claiming success.
Would appreciate any help in getting this sorted out!

Did you go back to Chrome password manager and verify they had passwords were saved there?
Hey Mark, I did yes
I verified on Chrome for desktop (on the same computer I'm trying to get Firefox set up on) and on my android phone as well. Passwords are definitely saved to the Chrome password manager

I would say try again to import them from Chrome.
Try reading this.

Yep, I have tried importing them again three times now. Same issue every time.
The solution suggested in the first link (creating a new profile and deleting the old) didn't work.
The second link is a link to the guide I followed for importing the info from Chrome, no new info in that one to solve the problem unfortunately.
Maybe you might need to go to a Chrome Forum and ask their users there for why it's not importing the password?
I guess that's my next step if you we think the issue isn't Firefox's import tool
