Dashlane to Microsoft Edge converter

Dashlane and Microsoft Edge both use CSV, but Dashlane writes 9 columns; Microsoft Edge expects 5 in a different order — so Edge rejects a raw Dashlane export or silently files everything into the wrong fields. Drop your export below and get back a file Edge accepts.

Convert your Dashlane export

Drop your Dashlane CSV here or click to choose a file — nothing is uploaded

The conversion runs entirely in this tab using JavaScript. Your file is never sent to a server — you can confirm it by opening your browser's Network tab, or by turning off Wi-Fi before you drop the file in. Prefer not to do this in a browser tab at all? Download the converter and run it from your own disk.

Your export file is plaintext. Both the file Dashlane gives you and the one you download here contain every password in readable form. Delete them as soon as the import is verified, and empty your trash.

What's actually different between the two formats

Only 4 of 9 column names match (username, password, note), and they're in a different order — enough for Edge to accept the file and then put your passwords in the wrong fields.

Dashlane column	Microsoft Edge column	What happens
`title`	`name`	Renamed and repositioned
`username`	`username`	Same name, position adjusted
`password`	`password`	Same name, position adjusted
`url`	`url`	Same name, position adjusted
`otpSecret`	`— none —`	Edge has no 2fa secret field. Written into notes instead of dropped.
`note`	`note`	Same name, position adjusted
`category`	`— none —`	Edge has no folder field. Written into notes instead of dropped.

What carries over

Field	Dashlane	Edge	Result
Item name / title	Yes	Yes	Carried over
Username and password	Yes	Yes	Carried over
Website URL	Yes	Yes	Carried over
Notes	Yes	Yes	Carried over
Folders / groups	Yes	No	Written into the notes field as "Folder: …" so you can re-sort later.
Two-factor (TOTP) secrets	Yes	No	Written into notes. Re-add them by hand, or keep them in a separate authenticator.
Favorites	No	No	Not in the source file
Custom fields	No	No	Not in the source file
Multiple URLs per entry	No	No	Not in the source file
File attachments	Yes	No	No CSV export includes attachments. Download them out of Dashlane separately before you close the account — this is the one thing people lose permanently.

Step 1 — Export from Dashlane

Sign in to the Dashlane web app at app.dashlane.com.
Open My account → Settings → Export data.
Choose "Export as CSV" and confirm with your Master Password.
Dashlane downloads a ZIP — unzip it and use credentials.csv.

Official instructions: Dashlane export documentation

Watch out for

Dashlane exports a ZIP containing several CSVs (credentials, payments, ids, securenotes). Logins live in credentials.csv — that is the file to convert.
Dashlane has three username columns. The alternates hold secondary logins for the same site; most targets only have one username field, so the extras belong in notes.

Step 2 — Convert it

Drop the file onto the converter above. It parses Dashlane's layout, maps each field onto the universal record, then writes Microsoft Edge's exact expected columns — including the empty ones its importer requires and, where the two differ, the right shape for 2FA secrets. You'll see a preview and a list of anything Edge can't hold before you download.

Rather not put this file in a browser tab connected to the internet? The same converter is available as a single HTML file you can download and open with your network switched off.

Step 3 — Import into Microsoft Edge

Go to edge://settings/passwords.
Select the ••• menu → Import passwords → choose CSV file.
Pick the converted file.

Watch out for

Edge uses the same five-column Chromium layout as Chrome, so files are interchangeable between them.
Edge has no field for TOTP secrets, folders or favorites — those cannot survive the trip.

Step 4 — Verify and clean up

Open ten entries in Microsoft Edge at random and check them against Dashlane.
Your folder names were written into each entry's note. Re-sort them however Edge organizes items.
Sign in to one real site using Microsoft Edge to confirm autofill works.
Delete both CSV files and empty your trash. If your Downloads folder syncs to iCloud, OneDrive or Dropbox, confirm the deletion propagated there too.
Only then close your Dashlane account — and change any password you suspect was exposed while the plaintext file existed.

Questions

Why won't Microsoft Edge import my Dashlane file directly?

Only 4 of 9 column names match (username, password, note), and they're in a different order — enough for Edge to accept the file and then put your passwords in the wrong fields. The converter rewrites the file into Microsoft Edge's exact expected layout, including the column order and any empty columns its importer requires.

Do my passwords get uploaded anywhere?

No. The conversion is JavaScript running in your own browser tab — the file is read with the FileReader API, transformed in memory, and handed back to you as a download. There is no upload, no server-side processing and no analytics attached to the file. You can verify this by disconnecting from the internet before you drop the file in: the conversion still works.

What gets lost moving from Dashlane to Microsoft Edge?

Microsoft Edge can't natively store: folders / groups, two-factor (totp) secrets, file attachments. Rather than drop that data, the converter writes it into the notes field where Edge has one, so you can move it back by hand. Keep your Dashlane account active until you've confirmed everything you need made it across.

Can I keep my 2FA codes in Microsoft Edge?

No — Microsoft Edge has no field for TOTP secrets at all. The converter puts each secret into the entry's note so it isn't lost, but Edge won't generate codes from it. Move those to a dedicated authenticator app before you shut down Dashlane, or pick a target that supports them.

Is the export file from Dashlane encrypted?

No. A Dashlane CSV export is plaintext — every password in it is readable by anything that can open the file, including other apps on your machine and anything that syncs your Downloads folder to the cloud. Convert it, import it, then delete both files and empty your trash. If your Downloads folder syncs to iCloud, OneDrive or Dropbox, check that the deletion propagated.

Anything unusual about Dashlane's export?

Dashlane exports a ZIP containing several CSVs (credentials, payments, ids, securenotes). Logins live in credentials.csv — that is the file to convert.

Anything unusual about importing into Microsoft Edge?

Edge uses the same five-column Chromium layout as Chrome, so files are interchangeable between them.
