Firefox stopped autofilling passwords about a week ago

Firefox no longer autofills my password and username fields. I used to be able to right click in the field and options would appear. The passwords are still in my password manager and I can manually search for them and copy and paste, but this is very inconvenient. I think this might have corresponded with an update to firefox. Also, if I go to Privacy and Settings, the "Ask to save logins and passwords for websites" is grayed out. I am not in private browsing mode.

You can use "Fill Login" and "Fill Password" in the right-click context menu of these fields on the web page.

The classic Firefox Password Manager has a checkbox at the bottom to disable/enable auto-fill (Autofill logins and passwords).
