Description
### What is this about?
I have an old computer that won't boot but I can copy the data, I tried to find the IDB file but it seems that edge's IDB file is shared by all the plugins so it can't be decrypted, how do I do that?

Research direction
No repository files, tests, or entry points are identified. First investigate how Edge stores IndexedDB data compared with Chrome and whether copied data can be decrypted; the issue needs reproduction details and acceptance criteria before implementation can begin.
