I was just setting up Firefox logins to backup all my passwords on my browser to transfer to another computer, and I've managed to stuff this up


The previous browser is asking for the "PRIMARY PASSWORD" - I enter the Firefox login password but this doesn't work.

Is the PRIMARY PASSWORD different?

I can login into Firefox browser, through the web interface but the popup continues to come up "Password required" and the password doesn't work

The Primary Password is the password that you can use to add an extra layer of encryption to the logins.
