i've firefox 97 in linux mint, and now is not showing the saved password in my sync account in any login form that i visit, i have the credential stored, and i've tried disabling the performance options in the general settings as i found that can be an issue, but still is not showing, i don't know maybe have something to do with graphics driver, but i don't know how to test it

thanks

i think i found what the issue was, for some reason (i didn't disable it) in the settings in privacy i had the first option disable (the other 3 still active) and just disabling the ask to save password will disable also the autofill and suggest of credentials

Are you possibly using Private Browsing mode ?

Start Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) or if hardware acceleration or userChrome.css is causing the problem.

  • switch to the DEFAULT theme: "3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Themes
  • do NOT click the "Refresh Firefox" button on the Troubleshoot Mode start window

i'm not using private browser, also now i tried on a windows pc with firefox developer edition and get the same issue, no more autofill of login form and no suggestions, also doesn't ask to save password when i do a login

Can you manually create a new login in the Lockwise Password Manager ?

You can try Firefox from the official Mozilla server if you currently use a version from the repositories of your Linux distribution to see if it behaves differently.
