Auto find and remove duplicates
Please add the ability to delete similar logins & passwords for the same site (that are stored mainly because of importing data from several browsers & password managers).

I thought that this was a no-brainer, but I guess I was wrong. Please implement the removal of duplicates immediately.

I think that it would be more interesting to have an option to fusion entry with the same name, website.....

Being able to merge entries after creating would be awesome.
But going right along with this, and even more important really, is preventing the duplicates in the first place.
Shouldn't ProtonPass Chromium/Chrome extension be more intelligent about heading off duplicate entries right when it sees me wanting to sign into a website for which it has no Valult entry with a matching WEBSITES field?
IOW, ideally, the behavior I would like to see is:
I go to a website where I already have an account.
a) Plan A: ProtonPass tries to find a Vault entry with a matching WEBSITES field. (It already does this.) If it cannot find a matching WEBSITES field, then it should fall back on Plan B:
b) Plan B: It should try to intelligently "guess", which entry I might already have in my ProtonPass Vault, but I just don't have the Website/URL entered, yet, based upon grepping for similar text in any field of all entries.
For instance, if I have an entry with TITLE "example.com email" but nothing in the WEBSITES field, then when I go to example.com/sign-in, ProtonPass extension should "see" the TITLE and see that it has many of the same sequences of characters, and and ask me: "Is this the same as the site you're on now? And if I say yes, then just add the website/url to the WEBSITES field of the previously existing entry.
And if it CANNOT find any reasonable entry, then..
c) Plan C: ProtonPass extension should ask me: "I can't find this website in my vaults by URL or name. But would you like to search for and add this sign-in URL to an already existing Vault entry?" If I respond, "Yes", then it should let me pick one manually from among the already-existing entries in the vault, and then it would add the website/url to the WEBSITES field of that entry. If I respond, "No", then of course it could just go ahead and ask me (as it already does), "Shall I make a new entry?".
BTW, Bitwarden has the exact same problem. If either of you take the above suggestion, you'll have the edge over the other (I have suggested to them too).

There should also be some way to select multiple entries at once so they all can be deleted at once.

I find it hard to believe that this is not available, I have had the Visionary plan for years, I had to import a Bitwarden vault, and I now realize that there is no such option.

Feature to mege duplicates is an absolute necessity

This is the highest priority ticket here, as it's not about usability but about security.
Not being able to find duplicates can lead to password re-use, or having two accounts with different passwords and not knowing which one to use, and maybe deleting the correct one.

Going to post it as a user story so Proton Pass can add it into their backlog and assign to a sprint.
USER STORY: As a Proton Pass User, I would like the ability to find and remove (or merge) user login records so that I do not have duplicate records on my password manager.

also merge duplicates on import

There are a lot of features missing. most of the people who actually pay for the pass would have had multiple password managers, Ideally, the feature should have been launched a long time ago!

Totally agree that this feature is in fact "a must" have.
Presently. I am faced with this problem of trying to sort out passwords from different sources and times registered.
It is preventing me from fully adopting PPass, although I am an unlimited account holder.
How about creating a "sandbox" where all such entries could be dumped and sorted prior to actualization in the manager itself?
Please do something effective for us all. -

Perhaps rather than removing them it might be better to merge them
