I made sure I could save passwords and that they are not being removed when I close Firefox.

I cannot get Firefox to REMEMBER passwords.

This just started happening.

I noticed that all of the passwords I had asked it to REMEMBER yesterday went into the EXCEPTIONS area when I had asked that they be REMEMBERED.

I have been using Firefox for a long long time and I moved this profile and its contents from my XP machine 3 days ago -

Please help me get this to function. No problems with this feature on my XP machine.

Thank you.

  • You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
  • To see all History and Cookie settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting Firefox will: Use custom settings for history
  • Uncheck: [ ] "Automatically start Firefox in a private browsing session"

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
