I don't have a master password set, but when I try to copy a password for a website it asks for a password
I don't have a master password set, but when I want to copy a password for a website, FF75 asks for a password which is my PC logon. I checked about:config security.ask_for_password and it is set to 0 - how to fix this?

For a (temporary) workaround - see :
Great, the workaround got the job done. Mozilla needs to back off, they provide for a master password, they don't need to putting stuff like this in on top of it, it is extremely irritating and they seem to think that they we are to stupid to protect our selves.
