I'm having trouble with my laptop battery and my laptop completely died. I got it working again but now Firefox doesn't have my logins for some reason. The Profile folder showed logins.json, logins.json.corrupt, and logins-backup.json. I changed logins.json to logins-old.json and changed logins.json.corrupt to logins.json like I saw in many solutions but that does not work. It just becomes logins.json.corrupt again. I tried the same with Logins-backup.json but still just changed to corrupt. I refreshed firefox but still the same. I made a new profile and copied the file and tried to get it to work there but still changes back to corrupt every time. I'm Windows 8.1 so there is no Previous Versions tab in properties so I can't go back to a previous version of the file. Is there ajny way to fix this and get my passwords back?

I have trouble logging into Yahoo email using Firefox, since the last update. It gives error message that site cannot be reached. I can go into settings, Privacy and clear data and then it logs in just fine, but to do this EVERY time I try to log in is a real PITA. Does not happen on other browsers.

I leave the country for several months a year to a country that is not supported for credit card autofill, and it doesn't work while I am there. However, once I return to the U.S. the autofill menu has disappeared from the Privacy & Security Tab, so I am unable to turn autofill back on. In the past I have had to uninstall/reinstall Firefox to make credit card autofill work -- until I leave the country again. Surely I am not the only user that has had this problem and having to uninstall/reinstall is a pain that users shouldn't have. Isn't there a better way to turn this function on and off?

Hello All, I work hard to eliminate Windows Event errors but EV 1155 Firefox Browser agent error is persistent after some reboots

I applied all the privacy and security options in the FF menu but still get the errors. I then followed the attached link to disable the browser agent which worked.

What concerns me is even after using FF Privacy & Security settings, the Browser agent startup task was still present under Mozilla in Task manager. Why is this, shouldn't the task be deleted after changing privacy settings?

I've followed all the steps in the following links and it should now be gone even after FF Updates since I changed policy settings.

Hello. Recently, it is in the Firefox browser that logins (nicknames) disappear from all pages. From inbox, facebook and others. Previously, if any nickname disappeared, then if you entered it again, it was saved. I'm not talking here about saving the auto-completion of the nickname and password. Only about the nickname (login). I don't want to save passwords on all pages. On google chrome everithing it's ok. Nicknames not disappeared. Only nicknames (logins) are stored there. Until recently, firefox was also preserved. Please fix this issue. I am already tired of writing all the nicknames every time. Again, again and again.

Google and Youtube and Gmail Accounts not showing in Passwords

I am trying to find my saved passwords, for Google but they aren't showing up in the saved password list. They are somewhere. If I open Gmail, I go straight in without any asking for a password. Same thing with Youtube. Open it up and I'm already logged in. I even purchased something in Youtube without needing any password verification.

But the passwords/usernames are not appearing in the firefox list of saved logins. It just isn't there. Are they saved somewhere else? Or is there a special setting for looking at all login information?

I really REALLY don't want to reset my password yet again and have to change them all across a dozen different devices in three different physical locations.

Where are the google/youtube/google play passwords saved in Firefox? Because they are not under the general list.
