How to set Firefox to retain Login credentials for a website, so I do not have to validate every time I sign in. For example: When logging on to Chase Bank, United Airlines, etc. I have to validate my identity every time I log in, even though I have previously asked website to remember me. Previously, I did not have to do this.

Stop Firefox from prompting for a login on a specific website

I log in periodically to a specific web site, in which I have an account. Recently, I cancelled (deleted) that account. I also deleted in the Firefox parameters that URL/login/password, and all related cookies. Later, I created a new account on that web site, using Firefox in private mode only, and it works fine. But Firefox prompts, in the login field of that web site, the old account, although for all I know there is no trace of it in the parameters. Not only do I use it in private mode, I also tested using a VPN - just in case the prompt would come from the remote website - and it still prompts that ancient login. Why is that prompt appearing and how do I get rid of it (without affecting all the other websites I use without a problem)? Thanks.

Firefox Autofilling Passwords Twice On Messenger.Com

First I tried all the suggestions I could find. And FF just kept double filling the password. So I did a completely fresh FF install to a separate folder with no cookies or passwords or anything saved, and never any extensions installed. Still double fills the password -- which makes it impossible to log in. I am using FF Portable, and tried both the latest version and an older version. What could possibly be doing this?

CA DMV and CA FTB problem with passwords

Good morning, I hope you are having a good day.

I have an account with CA FTB (to make my estimated tax payments) and an account with CA DMV (for DMV stuff like renewing drivers license).

The FTB account is https://webapp.ftb.ca.gov The DMV account is https://www.dmv.ca.gov

So, Firefox browser seems to think these two accounts are the same, and tries to use my FTB credentials for my DMV account.

It seems like the .ca.gov causes the browser to think they are the same account?

So, I would appreciate any insight on how to fix or work around this problem.

Thank you,

Kim

It's very hard for me to find where to go after clicking on the three line symbol in right hand corner. But when I finally did locate in Settings the section on passwords and sign-in info I turned that off. I was happy until I again signed into Mozilla and Amazon and my email address (which I use for ID) continued to pop up. Why do these things have to be so hard to find and then to make work. Please help. Thank you.

Hello All, just switched to Firefox and like it a lot. However, one thing I cannot figure out ... how to make it remember log-in email or username, but NOT saving any passwords. I googled and many answers are outdated (2014) ... non made a change anyways. - Unchecked "Delete Cookies when Firefox closes" - Under Passwords: I unchecked "Ask To Save Passwords" - Under Autofill: "Save and Fill Addresses" - Checked - I added my entire mailing address and email in "Save Addresses" - "Save and Fill Payment Methods" - Unchecked - Under History: "Remember Browsing and Download History" and "Remember Search and Form History" ...

  both checked.

These settings seam to be most logical for what I want but it still does not work. What I'm talking about is, e.g., when I sign in to Amazon I'm expecting to already see my email or at least after typing the first letter. That's how it was in the previous browser. (FYI: required password field/sign-in is replaced by Windows pin)

What am I doing wrong? Please advise.

Thanks

I went into settings and searched passwords. then clicked onto saved passwords and tried removing what I thought was the password for a site. However when I log into the site the password continues to autofill. I'm wondering if I'm not getting to the right spot to deal with autofilling passwords?
