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!

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.

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

Richard Brown

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.

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.

How do I make Firefox generate a new secure password, when the one it's already generated contains an objectionable word?

The password generator of Firefox is usually just adequate. However it sometimes generates a password I don't want to use. Maybe it contains a swear, or something gross.

I would have thought if I erased it from the input box, and then hit the option to suggest a strong password over again, it would give a different securely generated password. No go, same one again. I tried going into the password list and removing the password, then going back and hitting the generator again. Must make a new one, right? No, it stubbornly returns the same exact bad one.

What is going on, and how do I make Firefox actually re-do the password generation, instead of repeating the same one?

Hi! I'm running Linux Mint right now, but this also happened on Windows, I copied the profile from Windows so I suspect that is likely why.

When I go to about:logins, I see none of the accounts listed. Even when I input a search in the search box, nothing. I don't know what could be causing this. See attached screenshots. Don't worry, there's no concern of leaking account details, because they aren't showing up.

I use Firefox as my primary browser. I have always been able to sign in with Google Nest without any problem. I always entered my user name and then my password and I would be logged into my Nest account.

But now I click on my Google account (https://home.nest.com/login/) and then I click on Nest/Sign in/Sign in with Google. Then I just loop around between the two Google pages.

This started a few days ago. I can't figure it out so now I use Chrome or Safari. But I'd much rather use Firefox. Any ideas? Any help is very much appreciated.

Thanks, John
