Hello community,

Firefox continuously asks for master password. Everything I have done does not work.

This is kind of frustrating because I have done what it is recommended and it does not work. I am about to give up on Firefox!

Does anyone have a solution?

Thank you,

Are you possibly using Sync as this is a possible reason to ask for the Primary Password ?

This is because the credentials to login to the Sync account are stored in the Password Manager and you need to enter the Primary Password to unlock the passwords.
