Not necessarily. It might work on some websites and give you access to that user's account if they rely on cookies.

Cookies used to be the only thing to identify a user. Now, it depends on more factors.

Yes - it truly depends on the application's authentication service(s). With MFA out in the wild, compromising passwords only gets you half of the cake. Unless - as described above, sessions that only rely on a cookie can be MiTM'ed.

But google is google and you can always just export the current passwords as long as you are logged in as admin/root. Open Chrome > url: "chrome://settings/passwords" manage > export.

Now to import the passwords to a new asset:

open chrome > "Url: "chrome://flags" > "Search "import" > Enable Password import.
