Hello,

Am trying to export Firefox passwords. After the warning message that the export file will be readable text, nothing happens. Searched community to find that this problem exists but no solution other than reinstallation. When I did a reinstall not long ago, my profile disappeared so had to recover it using replacement json and db4 files. Not so keen to just re-install and lose my profile again. Thanks for any advice, Stephen

I logged out of my account on firefox and deleted all local data using the privacy settings, I then uninstalled Firefox (on my mac) and I was expecting my passwords to be removed.

I reinstalled firefox and the passwords were still there without me logging in to my account (sync). This is a big thing for me from a security perspective as it means the passwords to login were still left somewhere on my machine without my knowledge.

When you sign out of your account on firefox can you please make it incredibly obvious these are left somewhere and how to delete them / or even better make it default that they are removed from my machine during logout / removal of the app?
