Hi I use Firefox with a proxy server. I just bought a new laptop. On my old Dell, upon opening firefox, the authentication box for the proxy would pop up, and my username and password would be there saved. All I had to do was click on “sign in” On this new Dell, it will not save these details. Hence, every time I open Firefox I have to manually type in my username and password. I have followed all suggestions, I have made sure “remember password” and “automatic fill in “ boxes are ticked, but this seems to just be for websites. I need it for the Browser/proxy itself, in order to get to be able to browse. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
