I thought this might be a job for AI.

I asked AI "How can i remove the password on  chrome on linux"

AI said:

To remove the saved passwords in Google Chrome on Linux, you need to 
follow these steps:

     Open Google Chrome.
     Click on the three-dot menu icon in the top-right corner of the 
browser window.
     Select "Settings" from the dropdown menu.
     Scroll down and click on "Passwords" under the "Autofill" section.
     Here, you'll see a list of saved passwords. Click on the three-dot 
menu icon next to the password you want to remove.
     Select "Remove" from the dropdown menu.
     Confirm the removal when prompted.

If you want to remove the password for your Chrome profile altogether, 
you'll need to reset Chrome settings. Here's how:

     Close Google Chrome if it's open.
     Open a terminal window.
     Enter the following command and press Enter:

     bash

     rm -rf ~/.config/google-chrome

     This command will remove the entire Chrome configuration directory, 
including all settings and passwords.
     Restart Google Chrome.

Please note that resetting Chrome settings will remove all your 
customizations, bookmarks, saved passwords, and other settings. So make 
sure to back up any important data before proceeding.

  I have not verified if this is correct so precede with caution.
