After update to new chrome browser "google-chrome-103.0.5060"
A popup shows up:

"choose password for new keyring"

No explanation what is it, how to change it etc.  Is it needed?

Was it discuss before?



I don't use Chrome but google found this.

Does one of those help?  They seem to address the problem in slightly
different ways.

Thanks,  there is a lot of information how to by-pass it but very
little explanation which application request it or why is it there.



One thing I read makes it sound like it is for a built in password
remembering tool. I know Firefox and Seamonkey has the same but I
disable those since I use BitWarden anyway.  One would think there would
be a setting in preferences to just disable all that.  I suspect few use
them given the popularity of LastPass, BitWarden and other tools that
are much more secure and portable.  Maybe looking for a password tool
setting would help.  I tried Chrome ages ago, didn't like it at all.
That was several years ago so I'm clueless on it now.  Just thought
those suggestions might help.

Starting chrome with "--password-store=basic" solved the problem.
