Firefox now requires me to use a passkey to log in to YouTube. I don't have (or want) a passkey. My computer locks up solid, and I have to reboot when I cancel the request for a passkey. I can log in to YouTube on my Samsung S10+ tablet and S25 phone without problems. This problem only occurs on my Windows 10 computer. It is impossible to bypass this issue.

Situation - older desktop running 32-bit XP Home, pre Quantum Firefox, unknown Master/Primary Password. Need access to saved passwords. Have tried to find a solution but everything is not for older configurations. Suggestions on s workable solutions?

Prior to today, I've entered my [correct] Firefox primary password several times and it has always been accepted. It worked consistently right up until now, so what gives? And why aren't we simply allowed to reset our primary passwords, since all our browser settings, data, and personal preferences depend on accessing it via the primary password?

In short either send me a reset link, or instructions on how to reset my primary password.

Thank you!

Hello All, just switched to Firefox and like it a lot. However, one thing I cannot figure out ... how to make it remember log-in email or username, but NOT saving any passwords. I googled and many answers are outdated (2014) ... non made a change anyways. - Unchecked "Delete Cookies when Firefox closes" - Under Passwords: I unchecked "Ask To Save Passwords" - Under Autofill: "Save and Fill Addresses" - Checked - I added my entire mailing address and email in "Save Addresses" - "Save and Fill Payment Methods" - Unchecked - Under History: "Remember Browsing and Download History" and "Remember Search and Form History" ...

  both checked.

These settings seam to be most logical for what I want but it still does not work. What I'm talking about is, e.g., when I sign in to Amazon I'm expecting to already see my email or at least after typing the first letter. That's how it was in the previous browser. (FYI: required password field/sign-in is replaced by Windows pin)

What am I doing wrong? Please advise.

Thanks

i have the same bug as described in this bug report: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1946121

to put it shortly, after launching firefox, even when it goes to the "new tab", is always prompts for primary password. everytime. it also happens when i just go to a website like twitch. which im already logged into, it doesn't ask me to login on the website and firefox still prompts for primary password.

i am using windows 11, firefox version 138.0.4 (64-bit) my profile is synced with firefox. my windows machine does not have a password to log in. in the bug report they say it's solved with version 136.0.2 but obviously it still happens to me

i would really appreciate help fixing this because it's very frustrating.

I set up a primary password, then closed out of everything to make sure it worked. When I reopened the browser, everything was still logged in. I was prompted to enter the primary password, but bypassed it by x-ing out.

How can I stop everything from staying logged in? I want the passwords saved, but not everyone on the computer to be able to use them without some sort of log-in (in the browser, due to how software is set up we all use the same user account on the computer).
