Firefox unchecks "Ask to save passwords"

Often when I open the Firefox browser and try to log into a website, I have to go to settings first to re-enable the option "Ask to save passwords" before firefox will prompt me with auto filling the user name and password.

I uninstalled all extensions with the exception of "Gmail reverse conversation" and Firefox is up to date.

In web forms that ask for my email address Firefox displays a message 'Manage passwords' instead of displaying me email address. I cannot find a way to disable this irritating feature which means I have to write in my email address every time which in turn increases the likelihood of mistyping my address. I have searched all over the place trying to find an answer but without luck. Can someone tel me how to disable this? Thanks.

bold textPasswords and Sign In

Hi,

I had some hardware problems on my old PC and for some reason most likely to do with accounts when I restarted on Win 11 on new PC I had lost the majority of passwords saved to the Browser Password manager.

I have lost my old email address and am having some issues working out whether for some reason on the old system I was using my old email address to log in.

Is there any workaround to trying to determine whether I have a seperate account possibly linked to old mobile or email account that may link to the Password manager that contains my old PC systems password link.

I am setting up a more secure way to save passwords also? Is it better to use a portable hard drive rather than something cloud based for passwords?

I am a senior and at times do make some elementary mistakes with digital literacy so sympathetic answers would be greatly appreciated.

Richie

Firefox does not save manually inputted password/user id information from the web login page. It does if entered into password section in Firefox. I've checked the box under saved passwords but does not do anything. I used to be able to enter login information & PW and Firefox would ask "Do you want to save this PW?..."This would build the PW file. But, the only way I can do this is to manually enter data in the Mozilla application menu. What's wrong? thanks

Saved passwords

I am having a problem with Firefox losing or not updating some saved passwords. It has always worked seamlessly in the past, but in the past couple of weeks (January 2025), several sites that I regularly visit and have saved passwords for (nothing financial; I never save that stuff) have not auto-populated the password field and I have had to change passwords. I did this on one site a couple of days ago, using my mobile and tablet (both Firefox web browsers), but when I went to log in to that site on my desktop Firefox browser today, it had not updated the password, and even when I typed in the new password, Firefox did not offer - as it normally would - to update the saved password. I was logged in to Firefox at the time, so my account was live. Anyone else having this problem? Or know why it's happening?

On a site with multiple saved logins, autofill suggests all saved passwords but only one saved username

I have a handful of different reddit accounts. Each has its own password and they're all saved in Firefox's default password manager. Say I'm logged out and go to log i… (læs mere)

I have a handful of different reddit accounts. Each has its own password and they're all saved in Firefox's default password manager.

Say I'm logged out and go to log in. If I click on the first field, which is "Email or username," I'm given only two options: one is my email and the other is one of the usernames. If I click on the second field, which is "Password," I'm given all the passwords I've saved.

Obviously, when I click on "Email or username", I want all the saved usernames to appear. If I could select a password and that would auto-fill the appropriate username, that would be almost as good, but that doesn't work either.

What's most mysterious is that in the saved password list, Firefox doesn't have any information associating my email with reddit specifically. And the one username that I have the option to select is always the same one, and I don't know why it's that one in particular. It's not the oldest, or the newest, or the most recently used.

Any help would be appreciated!
