Do you mean names and passwords in the Password Manager or do you mean that you are no longer logged on to (remembered by) websites after closing and restarting Firefox?

Websites remembering you and automatically log you in is stored in a cookie.



Make sure that you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode.
