Find Out More About Your Chrome Sync Data and How to Clear It [Chrome]

Find Out More About Your Chrome Sync Data and How to Clear ItChrome: If you have syncing turned on in Chrome, the browser by default syncs everything: your apps, extensions, settings, autofill, Omnibox history, bookmarks, passwords, and open tabs. Ever wonder how much data Google has saved or how you can clear it all? Head to the new Chrome Sync page to find out.

As you might already know, under the Advanced sync settings in Chrome's settings, you can select which items you want the browser to sync and also set up encryption options (encrypting everything is a good idea). This link will take you directly to the sync settings: chrome://chrome/settings/syncSetup.

Go to the new Chrome Sync page to see how much information is currently stored for syncing. The page doesn't display the actual data, but it tells you if it's stored encrypted by Google and you can read a brief description of what kinds of data are stored for each item.

This is also where you should go if you want to clear the synced information. For example, if you're having sync problems or you don't all your synced data deleted from Google's servers. Hitting the "Stop and Clear" button clears all the data and is irreversible.
