After receiving another message saying that they had hacked my password, I wanted to look for where it was used, but I did not find a way to search for a password. How do I know which sites have I saved this password for?

Since Firefox 70, it's now possible to search by password as long as you don't have a Master Password enabled.

You can simply enter the password you want to search for in the search input in Firefox Lockwize. You'll see that the list of login credentials on the left will now only show the logins that use that password.

Hmmm ... for me it is a total mess, since I have a master password and nevertheless need to search all of my about 300 (!!) logins by password.

Is there any workaround?

For now you can revert to legacy Password Manager by clearing the value of this pref (erase the current value and leave it blank).

You can reset the pref to return to Lockwise.

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "Accept the risk" to continue.
