In the chrome settings I go to “Addresses and more” and click on “Save and fill addresses “. There is no add button there and the edit button is greyed out. Please help me with this
I guess you’ve turned off the feature. You must turn on the toggle button for the ‘Save and fill addresses’ option. It will enable the adding and editing of addresses.
