I never want FF to remember my logins. The first thing I do is un-check the Security>Logins>Remember Logins for Sites. However, whenever I restart FF this check box is checked off again and FF asks me if I want to remember logins.

I've uninstalled/reinstalled FF. I've tried this on a different laptop. I've created a new FF profile and deleted the old. Nothing works. This is the sole reason why I end up having to go back to Chrome for my daily browser.

Win 7

hi brett611, do you have Trend Micro PasswordManager or Dashlane installed in your list of programs in the system control panel by any chance? if so, please uninstall it from there if you're not using it...

Thanks! I don't use Trend Micro Pswrd Manager or Dashlane...use 1Password.

Additionally this is my work laptop and they use Trend Micro OfficeScan, which I cannot disable. There is a trend micro extension but it's disabled
