Google Chrome is a great browser for sure, though I still see bugs there. Some of them are really annoying: my Chrome (at my work computer) does not offer to remember HTTPS authentication data, and I have to enter it manually each time I go to the secured resource for the first time after Chrome start – it simply does not offer to remember it. Sorry, I can't remember my credentials, don't ask why. 😀 But! The Chrome at my home computer successfully remembers these credentials after offering to remember them. I checked Chrome preferences (the according option is always set on [though it always offers to store form authentication data at simple "HTTP sites"]), I tried to clear even all passwords – Chrome still asks me to enter both username and password for that HTTPS site after I restart the browser… I don't know what I have do… Can I really force it to remember HTTPS credentials?
Thanks in advance.
UPD: My Chrome version is 6.0.472.63

If both Chrome installs are the same version, and yet are behaving differently, then there must me something messing it up at profile level.
I suggest creating a new profile from scratch, of copying your profile from the installation that does remember https credentials to the one that does not.
Creating a new profile is as easy as deleting (or renaming the folder) that contains the current one.
For guidelines on where Chrome stores its profiles, check http://www.chromium.org/user-experience/user-data-directory
PD: profile = user data directory
