Firefox account is saving passwords on office & home computer. I don't want that. Is there a setting to save PW on one computer but not the other?

I created a Firefox account and have logged in using my home and my office computer. I have passwords that I want saved for only my home computer and don't want them to be saved on my office computer. If I turn off save passwords or remove the saved password for a specific website or account on one computer it makes the same settings for the other computer. Is there a setting that will allow me to use the saved passwords feature separately for each computer and still have a Firefox account so other settings such as favorites will stay synced?

hi, you can go in the firefox menu ≡ > options > sync and disable the synchronisation of passwords. afterwards you can delete your home passwords from the office computer without that change being synced back to your other devices.
