  1. Yes, if your other application requires the Login keyring and you had deleted it, you can simply create a new Login keyring.

    1. Open Seahorse (Passwords and keys) and click the green + button.
    2. Select "Password keyring" as item type to create.
    3. You will be asked for a name, which should be exactly Login.
    4. After that, you have to set a new password, which has to be equal to your account's password, so that it can get unlocked automatically when you log in to your Ubuntu account.

    Now there should be a new Login keyring in the list. You can test if it unlocks properly by logging out of your Ubuntu account and back in. If everything worked, it should be unlocked then.
