Greetings...

In regards to the Firefox Password Generator, I have two questions:

Q #1: Currently, the Firefox Password Generator appears to create random passwords that are 15 characters in length. Is there some way that I can increase the length of the randomly created passwords to a longer length, say 18 characters? Might this setting be contained at some location within "about:config" that I could edit?

Q #2: Currently, it appears that the only way to create a password for a new website in the Firefox Password Generator is when attempting to set the password while on a website. I would like to be able to create a password for a website from within the Firefox Password Generator itself. Is there some way that I could accomplish this task?

Thank you for your attention and assistance! Take care...

Lately, every time, every time, EVERY TIME, I have to restart my computer or Firefox, its like frigging Groundhog Day with Firefox. I have to go to Settings and re-select the "Ask to keep passwords" option. Every time. Why doesn't that stay on? I have to log into all my sites again with all my logins like its the 1st time. Like its Groundhog Day again. And I have to re-load all my pinned tabs again. Again. AGAIN. One of the things I used to like about Firefox was that you kept things simple and didn't make me crazy. Why start now? I don't want to spend 20-30 minutes every time resetting my browser just so I can get work done. I'm not Bill Murray. How do I kill this frigging ground hog or do I go looking for the duck? I can't work like this

Unbeknownst to myself, I have been using Firefox for the greater part of a year without formally signing in. I've had a Mozilla account for some time, so I simply logged in and thought nothing of it. A few days later I tried to fetch a password for a service I use and noticed that all of my passwords were gone. I've tried going to about:profiles and trying both profiles listed, with no luck. I've checked my Desktop for any file dump, but no luck there either. Any advice would be appreciated!

One site only has a drop down for login that is incorrect. I have never autosaved this site and there are no saved logins/passwords on Firefrox. Simple Practice says it is a Firefox issue, yet I have cleared history, cache, and turned off all passwords and anything in privacy and security in Firefox. This was not happening on my new computer until I logged into Firefox

On my home page i have 2 rows of short cuts. Then the latest news listings. Can I change the types of news listings? For example one story might be from NPR while the next can be from CNN then another from MSNBC. Non of which interests me. Is there away to set sites in the settings to list News and events that I would be interested in? Sites like The Wire, Reuters, NewsMax, RT, The National Desk, etc. So would there be a way to get those headlines? Thanks
