Chrome 12.0.742.112 sync options not staying

Hi, I'm using the PortableApps Chrome 12.0.742.112, however under Options -> Personal Stuff -> Sync, the sync options/credentials do not save from session to session. ie. if I close Portable Chrome and open it up again, I have to manually re-sync everything each time instead of Chrome automatically syncing in background. Any way to fix this?

Thanks.

Enable Passwords

You need to manually enable saved passwords which will allow the Chrome Portable launcher to store your passwords securely for you on the portable device. You will be prompted for a master password each time. This is due to the fact that Chrome has no encryption built in (it relies on Windows for encryption, proxy support, etc), so we had to custom build this ability into our launcher.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!

Hi John, thanks for the

Hi John, thanks for the reply, I really appreciate it when creators respond to questions about their own developments.

"You need to manually enable saved passwords which will allow the Chrome Portable launcher to store your passwords securely for you on the portable device."

Does this mean under Chrome, Options -> Personal Stuff -> Passwords -> Offer to save passwords should be checked? I did that but it seems that it is losing sync just as before, although I checked in my "Manage saved passwords", however there aren't any saved passwords currently in there.
