ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Comment 1 Nate Graham 2020-12-17 20:57:16 UTC 
1. Are you using KWallet?
2. If so, is the password for your wallet identical to the password for your user account?
Comment 2 Lua 2020-12-18 17:24:38 UTC 
Well, it's a fresh install, I never used KWallet and I didn't change my user password yet after the installation.
Comment 3 Lua 2020-12-18 17:25:57 UTC 
Also, in the second password prompt, I have to type the WiFi hotspot password again. If I type my user password, I got an "incorrect password" warning.
Comment 4 Nate Graham 2020-12-18 19:41:08 UTC 
Is KWallet disabled, or enabled but not set up yet?
Comment 5 Lua 2020-12-20 18:08:10 UTC 
It's a fresh install. I didn't touch KWallet yet.
Comment 6 Nate Graham 2020-12-20 18:44:02 UTC 
Does it stop happening if you set up KWallet with a wallet password that's the same as your login password?
Comment 7 Lua 2020-12-29 04:04:19 UTC 
But I never used KWallet in this installation. It's using the same password, I guess. When I start Chromium at system startup, I don't get any popups asking me to unlock the wallet.

New information was added with comment 7; changing status for inspection.
Comment 9 Lua 2021-05-01 00:12:15 UTC 
I'm not having this bug anymore in 5.21.4.
Comment 10 Nate Graham 2021-05-01 23:35:55 UTC 
Cool, thanks for the update!
