| How to Recover Google Chrome Passwords Posted: 12 Sep 2020 01:00 AM PDT This wikiHow will teach you how to find your saved passwords in Google Chrome using Password Manager. Unfortunately, there is no way to recover passwords that you delete in Google Chrome. [Edit]Using a Desktop Computer - Open Google Chrome . You'll find this app icon in your Start menu or in the Applications folder of Finder.
- Click . It's in the top right corner of the window.
- Click . This is usually toward the bottom of the menu.
- Click . It's in the menu on the left side of the page.
- Click . This is usually the first option in the menu.
- Click the eye icon next to the website with the associated password you want to see and enter your computer password. If you enter your computer's password correctly, the eye icon will show your password for the site.
- You can repeat this step for each site with a password you want to see. [1]
[Edit]Using Android - Open Google Chrome . You'll find this on one of your Home screens, in the app drawer, or by searching.
- Tap . It's in the top right corner of the window next to the address bar.
- Tap . This is usually toward the bottom of the menu.
- Tap . You'll find this menu option near the middle of your screen.
- Tap a password you want to see. From the list of websites that have usernames and passwords, you'll be able to tap on one to see more information about that login.
- Tap the eye icon next to the password and enter your phone's security code. This could also be worded as a PIN or your fingerprint, but after you enter the code correctly, you'll be able to see the password.[2]
[Edit]Using an iPhone or iPad - Open Google Chrome . You'll find this red, green, yellow, and blue orb on one of your Home screens.
- Tap . It's in the bottom right corner of your screen (iPhone) or top right (horizontal iPad).
- Tap . This is next to an icon of a gear near the bottom of the menu.
- Tap . You'll then see a list of all your passwords for all your logins.
- Tap under a password you want to see. Your default view of you passwords is hidden, so you'll need to request to see them for each login.[3]
- You can also go to https://passwords.google.com if you're unable to see passwords in your settings.
- If you still can't find your passwords in Chrome by using Password Manager, you can check for a backup.[4]

| How to Grow a Beard Faster Posted: 11 Sep 2020 05:00 PM PDT If you're eager to grow a glorious beard, it's hard to accept that it simply takes time. In reality, your genetic profile is the most important (and unchangeable) factor in how fast your beard will grow.[1] There are things you can do to potentially speed up the process a bit, though. Take care of your beard as it grows, follow a beard-healthy lifestyle, and talk to your doctor if your beard needs additional help. And, above all, be patient, and don't stress! [Edit]Caring for Your Face and Beard - Be patient and let your facial hair grow. Your genetic profile is the primary factor in how quickly (and how fully) your beard grows, and there's not much you can do about that. On average, though, most people will see their facial hair fully grow in after 4 weeks of not shaving.[2]While you can take measures to support the process and increase the growth, you should also accept that your beard will grow in its own way and at its own pace.[3]
- Some people say that regularly trimming your beard will stimulate faster growth, but there's no evidence to support this.
- It's possible that frequent shaving before you start growing a beard may stimulate the hair follicles to grow faster, but the evidence for this is also limited at best.[4]
- So, once you start growing a beard, just let it grow!
- Wash your face twice per day to unblock hair follicles. Wet your face with warm water. If you haven't started your beard yet, massage in a gentle face cleanser. If you do have a beard coming in, also use a mild shampoo on just the facial hair. Rinse the cleanser and/or shampoo away with cool, clean water, then pat your face dry with a soft towel. Do this every morning and evening.[5]
- Washing your face regularly will help to remove dirt and oil from your hair follicles. This makes it easier for them to grow.
- To test if a cleanser is gentle enough for your skin, apply a small amount to your chin and leave it for 10 minutes. If you don't have any signs of a reaction (like redness or irritation), you can try washing your face with the cleanser.
- Massage your face twice daily to stimulate the follicles. Apply firm but not painful pressure on your face with your fingertips, then massage in small circles over your beard-growing area. Do the massage for about 10 minutes, twice per day.[6]
- Exfoliate your face once per week.[7] Wash your face as normal with your gentle cleanser or shampoo, but rinse with warm water and leave your skin damp. Gently massage in the exfoliant over your entire face (including any facial hair), then rinse it away completely with clean water and pat your face dry.[8]
- Exfoliating will help to clear away dead skin cells that may be impeding your hair follicles from achieving their full growth potential.
- Before using an exfoliant on your entire face, test a small patch on your chin for 5-10 minutes. If you don't feel any burning or irritation, you should be good to go.
- Pamper your growing beard with beard oil or softener. While you should be wary of any product claims made for stimulating beard growth, beard oils and beard softeners may, in fact, provide some benefits. Keeping your beard hairs soft and hydrated may encourage slightly faster growth.
- Avoid beard oil if you have acne, though. It may worsen your breakouts.[9]
- At the very least, using beard products will make your beard look and feel better, no matter how fast it's growing.
- Try homemade beard-stimulating recipes. As with most home remedies, the supporting evidence for beard stimulators is limited at best. They aren't likely to cause any harm, though, so consider trying one or both of the following:[10]
- Create a thin paste out of of fresh-squeezed lime juice and 1 US tbsp (15 g) of ground cinnamon. Apply it to your beard in a thin layer, leave it for 20-30 minutes, then rinse it away and use your normal face cleanser. Use this paste 1-2 times per day, but stop if you notice any irritation.
- Blend 3 US tbsp (45 g) of dried mustard leaves with of amla oil until it forms a smooth paste. Apply it in a thin layer over your beard, leave it for 15-20 minutes, then rinse it away and wash your face with your normal cleanser. Refrigerate any remaining paste and use it daily for 2-3 days.
[Edit]Choosing a Beard-Friendly Diet and Lifestyle - Eat more foods with vitamins B3, B5, B7, and B9. Several of the B vitamins promote healthy hair, so upping your intake may help your beard grow a bit faster and fuller. Biotin (Vitamin B7) seems particularly beneficial, so you may want to consult your doctor about taking a biotin supplement as well.[11]
- Nuts are a great source of biotin (Vitamin B7).
- You'll find vitamins B3 and B5 in chicken, beef, fish, dairy, and avocados.
- You can get Vitamin B9 from cereals, nuts, and leafy greens.
- Increase your intake of vitamins A, C, and E. Like the B vitamins, each of these vitamins supports healthy hair in some fashion. They're also important for your overall health.[12]
- Eat carrots, broccoli, and leafy greens for Vitamin A.
- Choose green peppers, tomatoes, and citrus for Vitamin C.
- Pick beans, nuts, and leafy greens for Vitamin E.
- Eat a balanced diet overall to support beard health. While it may be helpful to target key vitamins, make sure you focus on eating a healthy diet that provides a wide variety of nutrients. Think of it this way—whatever is good for your body is good for your beard![13]
- Eat lots of vegetables, fruits, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats (like avocados and olive oil).
- Cut back on processed foods, excess salt and sugar, and unhealthy fats (like saturated and trans fats in processed foods).
- Drink water to hydrate your body and your beard hair follicles.
- Follow health guidelines for exercise and sleep. Like eating a healthy diet, getting enough exercise and enough sleep are good for your overall health and your beard health. Aim for the following:[14]
- Get at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise per week. Moderate intensity means your heart rate is elevated and you're breathing hard enough that it's tough to make conversation.
- Do 2-3 strength training sessions per week, each for 30-60 minutes.
- Get roughly 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep at night.
- Reduce stress to encourage beard growth. You've probably heard that excessive stress can cause hair loss. It shouldn't be surprising, then, that it might also slow down hair growth. That means the less you worry about your beard, the better it might grow![15]
- Find the stress reduction techniques that work best for you. Try things like yoga, meditation, deep breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, nature walks, listening to calming music, talking to friends, or reading a good book.
- Work with your doctor and a mental health professional if you're having significant difficulty handling stress.
- Stop smoking for your overall (and maybe beard) health. There's no direct evidence that smoking is specifically bad for beard health. However, smoking is clearly bad for so many aspects of your overall health that it's not unreasonable to think it may hinder beard growth. Whether you're trying to grow a beard or not, focus on quitting as soon as possible.[16]
- There are numerous smoking cessation aids available today. Work with your doctor to find the right method (or combination of methods) for you.
- There is some evidence that smoking may cause your beard hair to turn gray faster.
[Edit]Considering Medical Options - Seek medical advice regarding your testosterone and DHT levels. Testosterone can be broken up into 2 types, often referred to as T and DHT. DHT levels impact beard hair density, while T impacts beard hair thickness. Managing T and DHT levels under medical supervision may enhance your beard growth.[17]
- Do not use testosterone-boosting pills, creams, injections, or other products without the advice and guidance of your doctor. There can be a range of unwanted side effects, and you could end up impeding beard growth.
- Your doctor may recommend engaging in regular strength-training sessions as a way to naturally boost testosterone levels.
- Talk to your doctor about using minoxidil (Rogaine) on your face. Rogaine, the most common brand name for minoxidil, is widely used to slow the progress of male pattern baldness. If applied to the face properly, it should help stimulate beard growth. However, even though Rogaine is available over the counter in many areas, you should always consult your doctor before using it on your face.[18]
- This may be a better treatment option if you have patches where your beard doesn't grow in well, as opposed to wanting your entire beard to grow in faster.
- If and when you stop treatment, any new hair growth may fall out.
- Ask a medical expert about micro-needling to stimulate hair growth. Microneedling involves rolling a device on your face that's similar to a lint roller—except instead of sticky paper on the roller, it has hundreds of tiny needle points. Some advocates for micro-needling believe the tiny pinpricks stimulate the hair follicles and enhance beard growth.
- Some dermatologists and cosmetic surgeons use in-office micro-needling to address issues like acne. Talk to a medical professional you trust before undergoing micro-needling treatments or buying a device yourself.[19]
- If used correctly, the process should be safe and relatively painless. However, it's essential that the device is sanitized properly before each use according to the product instructions (usually by soaking it in alcohol).
- Look into facial hair transplants as a final option. If there are areas of your beard that simply won't grow in, hair transplants may be your only choice. As with top-of-the-head hair transplants, individual hair follicles are relocated from one area (like the back of the neck) to another (like your cheek).[20]
- Hair transplants usually require multiple procedures that are both costly and time-consuming. It may take up to 2 years to see the full results, and the procedure doesn't always work.
- Transplants may help fill in gaps in your beard, but it won't make your beard grow faster.
- Remember to be patient and persistent. You can encourage your beard to grow faster, but your genetics will play a large role in how quickly the facial hair grows. Look at the beards your male relatives have; that will help you figure out what you can expect.

| How to Polish Scratches Out of Aluminum Posted: 11 Sep 2020 09:00 AM PDT Aluminum is used to make all kinds of everyday items from cars and wheels to refrigerators and kitchenware. It can be polished to make it very shiny, even mirror-like, and is a cheaper alternative to stainless steel and chrome. If you want to get scratches out of something like an aluminum refrigerator, oven, cup, car wheel, bike part, chair, or any other piece of aluminum, try polishing them out. As long as the aluminum doesn't have any super deep gouges and dents, you can polish out the scuffs and scratches with a few basic supplies and some elbow grease! [Edit]Removing Light Scuffs with a Scouring Pad - Mask off any non-metal areas around the scratched aluminum using tape. Use strips of blue painter's tape or masking tape. Cover up any sensitive or delicate parts of the aluminum object that you don't want to accidentally scratch or get polishing compound on during the polishing process.[1]
- For example, if you want to polish scuffs out of something like an aluminum stove or fridge, you might want to mask off things like control panels if they are near the scratched area.
- This method works for very minor scuffs and scratches. Keep in mind that you won't be able to get the aluminum looking like it is straight out of the factory, but you will be able to hide the scuffs and shine up the metal.
- You'll get the best results using this method if you polish the entire aluminum surface, not just the scuffed area, so that the finish looks uniformly shiny when you're done. However, if the scuffed area isn't too conspicuous, such as in a corner of an aluminum stove door, you can just polish the scuff marks out and blend it in to the surrounding metal as much as possible.
- Rub a scouring pad back and forth over the scuffed area, going with the grain. Hold a scouring pad in your hand and press it gently against the scratched area of the aluminum. Rub it back and forth over the area using slow controlled motions until the scuff marks disappear and the metal starts to look shiny.[2]
- Most aluminum has a unidirectional grain, which are actually brush marks caused by the original polishing process that the aluminum went through. Never rub the scouring pad across this grain or you might end up making the scuffs worse.
- If the aluminum item you want to polish doesn't have a visible grain, just pick a direction to rub the scouring pad in and only move it back and forth in this direction. Don't change directions or move it in circular motions or you might just create more scuff marks.
- Scouring pads are also known as buffing pads. The finer the git, the better for this job. You can get a fine-grit scouring pad at an auto detail supply shop.
- Apply metal polish to the aluminum using a microfiber cloth. Squeeze a small drop of metal polish onto a microfiber cloth. Scrub the metal polish into the affected area and the surrounding aluminum surfaces using back and forth motions and going with the grain of the aluminum.[3] Keep rubbing until the polish disappears into the metal and the surface looks nice and shiny.
- You can use a special aluminum polish or any type of metal polish you have available. Both will work to shine up the surface.
- Use a microfiber cloth to apply metal wax or sealant to the aluminum. Wrap a microfiber cloth around your index finger and dip it into a container of metal wax or sealant. Rub it over the aluminum surface using even strokes in alternating directions until the wax or sealant gets absorbed and there are no streaks on the metal.[4]
- This will seal the aluminum and protect it from oxidation.
- You can get metal waxes and sealants at an auto detail supply shop.
- Remove any tape that you applied to mask off certain areas. Peel up the masking tape or blue painter's tape. Dispose of it in your recycling bin.[5]
[Edit]Sanding out Deep Scratches - Spray WD-40 all over the aluminum you want to polish to lubricate it. Cover the scratched aluminum surface evenly in WD-40. This lubrication will help carry away the metal particles that you remove during sanding.[6]
- This method is known as wet sanding. You can do it with water too, but WD-40 is the best lubricant when you are sanding bare metal.
- You can use this method to sand and polish out curb damage on an aluminum car wheel or bicycle crank shaft, for example.
- Since you'll be actually removing a layer of metal using this method, the final results will look best if you sand and polish the entire aluminum object, not just the scratched part. For instance, if you want to polish scratches out of the face of an aluminum wheel, sand the entire wheel down.
- Sand out the scratches using 220-grit sandpaper. Attach 220-grit sandpaper to a sanding block, an electrical sander, or just use it in your hand if the scratched area is small. Press the sandpaper firmly against the scratched area and move it back and forth over the scratches in alternating directions until they disappear.[7]
- Keep in mind that if there are very deep dents and gouges in the aluminum, you won't be able to polish them out completely by sanding. However, you can at least make them less visible and restore shine to the surrounding surface.
- Make sure that the sandpaper you used is labelled as safe for wet sanding. Most fine-grit sandpaper is OK to use for wet sanding, but double-check the packaging or the back of the paper to be sure.
- Wear safety glasses and a dust mask when you sand metal, especially if you are using a powerful electric sander.
- Switch to 1500-grit sandpaper and sand the aluminum to smooth it out. Move the sandpaper back and forth in alternating directions, applying firm pressure, all over the same area you just sanded the deep scratches out of. This will get rid of the small scuffs and scratches made by the coarser sandpaper to smooth out the surface and start shining it up.[8]
- If you don't have exactly 1500-grit sandpaper, it's fine to use another very fine-grit sandpaper. Anywhere between 1000-grit and 2000-grit is fine for this step.
- Give the aluminum a final sanding with 3000-grit sandpaper. Switch to 3000-grit sandpaper and go back over the entire surface you have been sanding. This will make the aluminum very shiny.[9]
- If you don't want a super-shiny, mirror-like finish, you can use sandpaper that is slightly less than 3000-grit to finish sanding. For example, something between 2000-grit and 2500-grit.
- If there is no more WD-40 left on the aluminum by this stage, spray a little directly onto the sandpaper to lubricate it for this last round of sanding. This will help make the aluminum extra-shiny and carry away fine metal particles so they don't stick to the surface.
- Rub aluminum polish onto the surface using a polishing pad or cloth. Put some aluminum polish onto a clean area of a polishing pad or polishing cloth. Work the polish into the aluminum using circular motions, starting in the center and working your way out to the edges.[10]
- You'll know the polish is doing its job when the polishing cloth or pad starts to get black. If you don't see this black residue on your cloth or pad, rub harder and keep working the polish in all over the surface until you do.
- Buff the polish off with a clean, soft cloth. Rub a clean, soft cloth, such as a microfiber cloth, vigorously all over the polished surface using circular and alternating back and forth motions. Keep buffing the aluminum until it is uniformly shiny and there are no traces of polish left on the surface.[11]
- You can keep buffing the aluminum until you achieve the level of shine you want. However, once there are no streaks or other residue from the polish left on the surface, feel free to stop.
[Edit]Warnings - Don't polish aluminum that has any type of special coating, such as a Teflon coating, or you will just end up damaging the coating. You can only polish scratches out of bare aluminum.
- Don't use sandpaper that is any coarser than 220-grit on aluminum or you will just make more deep scratches in the surface.
