How can I export data from LastPass?

1. Export data from LastPass

1. Launch the web browser that the LastPass extension installed.
2. Click the LastPass icon in the toolbar.
3. Click on More Options.
4. Select Advanced > Export.
5. Select LastPass CSV File.
6. You will be prompted to enter the master password. Enter the master password to proceed.
7. If the LastPass opens a new tab containing your data, then scroll down to step 2 to learn more about exporting data from the browser.
8. If not, choose a location and file name for the CSV file that is being exported.
9. Click Save.
10. Make sure the .CSV extension is included while saving the file.

2. If LastPass opens a tab in your browser when exporting your data

1. If LastPass opens a new tab instead of allowing to save the CSV file do the following.
2. Copy all the data that is displayed on the browser tab.
3. Open Notepad and paste the data into it.
4. Save the document with .CSV extension.
5. Press Ctrl + S. Enter a name for the file but make sure the extension is .CSV. To do this, click the Save as drop-down menu and select All Files.
6. The file name, for example, will look like Passwordsfromlastpass.csv.

This step is only for that user who is unable to save the LastPass data directly from the extension. If you were able to save the export file from the extension, you don’t need to follow the above steps.
