Search the browser's data in system or sdcard, I'm pretty sure you'll find it
Thanks Jason for the reply. Can you please let me know the exact folder where browser data is saved as I looked but could not find it?
Oh yeah, sorry for not reading carefully
Go inside "/data/data/com.android.browser/" with Root Explorer or maybe other same kind of app, then search for the things you need. I'm sure all of your data is there!
I use ES Explorer to view Files and in the data folder in my sdcard, there is only one folder: com.keramidas.Titanium Backup
Am I doing something wrong?

No, it's in /data not /sdcard/data
You must use a file explorer like "Root Explorer", which can navigate to the root :good: Also, you'll need to root your phone first! Here's the guidehit "thanks" if i helped you

I already rooted my phone and I go to \data. Inside\data, there is no file shown...
you can navigate any files from Es file explorer.
just change the path from sdcard to system, there you can find all system files including cache also
you can change directory in settins after this exit the explorer then open the explorer again.
IF I HELPED YOU HIT THANKS
No, the data is not located in /system, it is located in /data
he'll need to change the path to the root of everything "/" @OP: Go inside /data/data/com.android.browser/ with Root Explorer (highly recommended), all the browser data are stored in there!

Just to clarify some things :@OP: Go inside /data/data/com.android.browser/ with Root Explorer (highly recommended), all the browser data are stored in there!
If you are on the sd-card you're acctually in /mnt/sdcard
You will need to go two steps back, to /
From there follow the path Jason described
... Hope this helps.
Es explorer can also be used as a root explorer, you have to go to settings, scroll down, check the box and approve it when the superuser dialog appears

An android app for that...
I found a cool Android app, which can recover and edit stored browser Passwords. Very easy: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=tkstudio.browserpasswordrecovery
