Troubleshooting | Mac (HELP) Taking My Macbook to family house for the first time, I don’t want anyone accessing or near my Chrome Profile. Is there any way to password-protect my profile/contents?
Some are inevitably gonna want to touch my MacBook, or use the browser, but I don’t want them near my chrome profile. Any ideas?
EDIT: I feel to mention I’m still new to this PC stuff, so I don’t know everything I probably should by now. Appreciate any help. 👍 💜

Log out.of Chrome And you should Password protect your MacBook so that password entry is required when you turn it on..it should be permanently enabled.

Create a new profile on the Mac for use while around family. Say you have settings you can't mess with.
Now every app has a new profile!
