Using Firefox 108.0.2 with Windows 10 on an HP laptop and Thunderbird 102 current version.

When filling out a form and box shows enter email address there are times with saved email address pops up into box. I cannot find where those email addresses are located so I can add or remove one or more addresses. Where are those address stored? Thanks

It's most likely stored in the cache itself and to remove those email in question you have to clear the cache and possible history as well to remove those listing.

OK I cleared cache. Where do I go to add an email address that will fill out complete when I add first few characters to that address? Where are current emails stored where I type in first few characters of address that is stored completes by clicking on it?

They are most likely encrypted and stored in the profile folder for firefox. You have to re-enter the email and send in order to have it saved cache for the next time, so when you enter that same email it should fill in the email address.

And did you setup the AutoFill/Save options yet in order to saved any logins or sites that auto fill as needed.
