Hello everyone,

How can I delete the automatic username suggestions that appear on websites? Even when I remove the username and password for the website from Firefox's password manager, the usernames still show up. If I simply double-click in the username field, I still get the old suggestions. Deleting cookies hasn’t helped either. Please see screenshot. I anonymized the mail adresses in the pic, but they are completely shown.

Can anyone help me?

Thx in advance Chris

In Firefox, and Firefox only, in every version for the last several months, I have found it impossible to get Firefox to allow websites to "remember this device", even when I check that option. Every day I log in to a website, for example Tmobile, and I have to get a code emailed to me. I check "remember this device so you won't need a code next time", but the next time I log in, the same thing happens. Over and over with many sites. This does not happen with any other browser, except Firefox. How do I get Firefox to allow me to save my info? I really don't want to use Chrome, Safari, Brave, or Edge, but I do not have this problem with any of them. Only Firefox. And yes, I've checked my settings, and everything I can see says Firefox should be saving this info.

I accidentally told Firefox to autofill a password for a website. I have followed all methods I found on web & in Mozilla support without success., except I don't want to stop or delete ALL autofills. Firefox doesn't show this password as saved (even when I search for it by URL), and the "Saved Logins" section of "passwords & security" [in settings] NO longer exists. I do NOT want to delete all autofills. I also checked my settings for this website, and it is NOT causing the autofill. Please: How do I stop Firefox from autofilling of a password for a SINGLE website? Thank you!

On some websites, namely GMX, the UK Guardian newspaper, Etsy and PatientAccess (there may be others), I cannot sign in using my login details. If I switch to Edge, using the same details, with the same laptop, my login works immediately. This also happens with a second laptop. I have tried clearing cache and cookies, but to no avail. Is there any setting I can change to allow me to sign in or do you have to fix your browser.

The version of Firefox is 133.0. Since installation, I have not changed any Firefox settings.

Best regards

Urgent: Need Help Recovering Lost Passwords After Firefox Sync Issue

Dear Firefox Support Team,

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to seek urgent assistance in recovering my saved passwords, which appear to have been lost following a recent reinstallation of Windows 11. Issue Details:

   I reinstalled Windows 11 and attempted to sync my main Firefox account, but none of my saved passwords have appeared in the browser, despite trying multiple solutions.
   I have already tried the following steps:
       Ensured I was logged into the same Firefox account and enabled sync for Logins and Passwords.
       Attempted manual sync multiple times.
       Checked my Firefox Lockwise settings and verified that no passwords were visible there.
       Tried logging out and back into my account and using the "Sync Now" feature again.

Further Attempts:

   I checked for possible Firefox profile backups from my previous Windows installation but could not find any recoverable data related to saved passwords.
   Unfortunately, I do not have a recovery key, and it seems I did not export my passwords prior to reinstalling Windows.
   I also explored other possible recovery options, such as using system restore points, checking other browsers, and scanning for old profile files, but none have yielded results.

I would greatly appreciate any assistance or guidance in recovering my lost passwords. If there is any way to retrieve the data from the Firefox Sync server or another potential method I might have missed, I would be grateful for your support.

Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Kind regards, Syed Zain Abbas

Recently many sites have (for reasons I cannot fathom) introduced a pre-login form: ie a form that requires a username to be entered before an password text box is provided. This seems to be a trend and it is incredibly annoying.

The issue I have is that FF does not recognise the page/form as a login page and therefore does not provide a list of usernames for the domain in question.

Any advice or help would be very much appreciated.

Norton recently issued a major update to their Norton 360 software. Since then the passwords that I saved in Firefox's password manager do not work. I go to the webpage and the passwords simply do not show up and cannot be used. Did Norton suddenly block the Firefox password and sign in function? Call me Puzzled.

Until the other day I was able to simply sign in to my various Yahoo email accounts password by using my 1Password saved password. Now,when I try to log into my Yahoo email accounts I get a popup window (see attached screen-print) saying that Windows Security wants to make sure it's me and that "This request comes from Firefox, published by Mozilla Corporation. Insert your security key into the USB port." Then I have to click the "Cancel" button, click "Try signing in another way" link and I can then sign in as I use to with my 1Password stored password.

These extra steps that are now required to sign-in to my Yahoo email accounts is very annoying and frustrating.
