Master Password Prompt Delay
Please can someone tell me why is there such a long delay between opening firefox and the master password prompt?
Also if anyone knows if there is some way to either speed up the master password prompt so that it opens instantly on opening firefox or prevent it from opening until a password box is present on the webpage.
The delay in the master password prompt is up to 20 seconds and is so annoying, it just gets in the way when you are trying to work.
Thanks in advance for any assistance that can be provided.

The credentials to connect to the Firefox Sync account are stored in the Password Manager.
Are you possibly using Sync as that could be a reason to ask for the PP at startup ?
You can open Lockwise (about:logins; possibly as a pinned tab or bookmark) to make Firefox ask for the PP if you do not want to wait.

Great answer, would have never thought of doing that. Problem solved right away, as soon as I open FF with lockwise pinned it immediately asks for the Master Password.
Thank you so much, this has been bugging me for way too long.
Have a great day!
