Version 17.12.3

Every time I reboot my system and open Google Chrome, kde wallet asks for my user password. If I don't do that, I'm not signed in to my Google account in chrome. If I disable KDE Wallet, same thing.

I would like to disable the annoying kde wallet or just work automatically (like auto-login on plasma dektop) without breaking software like google chrome or any other.

Please ask in a forum of your distribution how to install and setup kwallet-pam.

Ok it's fixed now. What happened was that I was using Plasma as desktop manager, but gdm3 as session manager, with autologin enabled, and for some reason in kde system settings it didn't appear autologin ticked. So I switched from gdm3 to sddm and now I'm required to login to Plasma session and KDE wallet works as expected.

should I report another bug regarding the Plasma behaviour not detecting gdm3 autologin settings?
