Firefox Community Forum

What happened: 1) I wanted to create a Passkey for a website and store it in Bitwarden. 2) Bitwarden pop-up opened, but while exploring the options, I accidentally clicked on the option "Use your device or hardware key: Always for this website". 3) Windows Defender dialog popped up with the options "iPhone, iPad or Android device" and "Security key" 4) I backed out of the dialog window 5) I clicked the button to create a Passkey again but going forward only the Windows Defender pop-up appears

The problem: I now cannot create a Passkey to store in Bitwarden on a specific website, because I accidentally clicked on "Use your device or hardware key: Always for this website".

What I've tried that didn't work: - looking through Bitwarden settings - deleting Firefox cookies - doing the same thing in Private Browsing - asking AI and looking through about:config, about:preferences and about:logins, as well as trying to find profile files related to webauth

Found workaround: - creating the Passkey from a different Mozilla profile

I would still very much like to be able to undo the "Always for this website". Is there a way to do that? (Attached images were captured later when recreating the situation.)

1: By logging in to my account I am asked to "Enter two-step authentication code"

Upon my knowledge I do not have anything like this. Can I still log in by using my old username and my normal pasword and the be able to sync between my different PCs ?

2: How to sync my EDGE Bookmark list to my Firefox ?

I followed the instructions to set a security and there is no option to do it. I need to be able to login to all of my gmail accounts. The correct password was used, and is shown when I click the key icon and is accepted on other browsers. What is the problem and how do I fix it?

Hello, about 3 - 4 weeks ago I used my Yubikey to login to a secure site via Firefox. Yesterday I again tried to login to the same site using my Yubikey and failed. An error messaged appears as per the screen shot. I then tried another two browsers (Edge, Vivaldi) and succeeded in using both browsers to login using my Yubikey. I also was able to login to (using my Yubikey) the same site via Firefox on my laptop without issue. My two firefox apps are not linked in any way. Has anyone else had this issue and know of a way to fix the problem?

I manged to find and lose a reddit post that discussed the same problem. In the end the reddit author said it was a windows issue and fixed via the settings app in windows. I have tired this but this doesn't appear to work. Regardless I am also reaching out to the Windows community to see if they can help.

Thanks all.

I have been getting problems with profiles under 2 separate account after trying org my work in to workspaces in a recent transfer to Linux mint. Some of the obstructions did not make sense such as enter your email and we will ask things only you know in attempting to check what was wrong with my pass. But the interface will simply not respond getting me stuck unable to proceed. So went on my handsets that corresponding to these two profiles to sort why correct pass was not opening the way. In one of them it simple and one reason I don't like so-called rec key. The 2nd required rec key and after keying that long thing I was able to see the pass and it is what it is. Now however my rec key needs replacement so click download which broughtbup indicating it was download but nothing. Went and my download folder, notification , even Documents... Nothing as I am sure this may lead to problems in the future of not soon and wanting to get my organising over asap, I want to tell somebody in charge to help address the problem

One Home/House. Two PCs. a. WINDOWS 1O b. LINUX 22.3 Both share One Mouse One Keyboard One Monitor. I have a FIREFOX account and have joined both PCs to MOZILLA. I have activated, deactivate and successfully used FIREFOX SYNC. I keep getting emails from MOZILLA stating that someone else signed on to my email acct. and a MOZILLA supplied a 6 digit code to confirm. I know it was me, so I confirm using 6 digit code and no problems. My question is. Who, How or can I inform so MOZILLA/FIREFOX recognizes both PCs. Also. Have been thinking about purchase of a YUBIKEY/KEYs for security. I know, for loss prevention, it is best to purchase 2 Keys. But can a single YUBIKEY be shared on both PCs. Or, do I need to purchase separate keys for each PC? So 4 Keys... 2 Keys for the WINDOWS 1O and 2 keys for the LINUX PC?

I am unable to use passkey with the 150.0 (64-bit) update of firefox. I get a message "The operation is insecure." when trying to create a new passkey and when attempting to use a passkey that has worked for months I now get "Passkey authentication error: The operation is insecure." Unfortunately the same day Microsoft patches were also applied, KB5086096 KB5086097 KB5091596 KB5082417 and KB5083769, 26200.8246 which could also the the problems, but firefox is reporting the error, so I am contacting you. This in on a Windows 11, version 24H2 system.

Hey, I have a new laptop and want to login to my account. My account is an hotmail.com one. After giving the password Mozilla is suppose to send me an email with an authentification number. The email is not coming. Not in the spam section, anywhere. Tried multiple times, same issue. Add Mozilla to my contact list, nothing changes. Tried to change my Mozilla account email address, not possible as I need to pass through this process again. Is my only option to delete my account and creat a new one with another email address?

I want to be receiving notification like when I reset my password I don't receive the code of resetting a password you know okay a lot like signing in receiving a notification

Several years ago I created an account for Firefox Sync. Meanwhile I changed my mail address, the old one, with which I registered, has been deleted as I just realized. So I can no longer access the code to login on new devices. What am I supposed to do now?

I received an email saying that someone had signed into my account. I want to secure my account and don't know how? I'm also not sure the email is real and isn't a scam and don't want to click on any email links...

I recently switched from Chrome to Firefox. Now when I try to login to a platform, my verification codes to my phone are coming through too slow. What is causing the delay?

This is rather annoying. Firefox will disconnect/logout my account rather frequently. But the actual issue is... when I go to log back into the account. The login process will send me an e-mail with a code.

And I have 2FA disabled, but I still have to go through the 2FA process.

How do I effectively TURN THIS OFF.

(I do not store passwords in Firefox...I only store a few convenient shortcuts in the bookmark bar)

I use this feature so I have the same shortcuts in my bookmarks bar across multiple computers.

Thanks in advanced

Hi All,

I am trying to setup 2-Factor Verification for my Mozilla account however every time I enter in the 6 digit code it shows up with "Invalid or expired code. Check your authenticator app and try again."

And I am positive I am doing it right. As I would normally do it; scan the QR code, enter in the 6 digit code.

If anyone has the same issue or solved it, please let me know.
