  • If this happens, press Cmd + A (for Mac) or Ctrl + A (Windows) to quickly highlight all onscreen text and copy and paste it to Notepad (for Windows) or TextEdit (for macOS) as a plain text file. 

 

Note: For TextEdit, you may need to change the file format from Rich text to Plain text (open TextEdit -> Format -> Make Plain Text).

  • After you save the text file, rename it and add ".csv" to the end of the file name, e.g., "LastPassExport.csv".
