Hello. I’ve had bitwarden for awhile, but I’ve never had to really use it. I mean, from the moment I installed the extension, it asked me to save logins, update, and filled in my logins whenever I selected that. I never had to go into my vault or do anything else, so I don’t know much about it. Th…
