Hello

Since today I cannot login to the passwords with the masterpassword! I have written down the password on a paper and I could login in every day. There is no message error and it comes always the same Login Window!

How can I set it? about:config  ? Thanks for your help.

Toni

Hi Toni, there's no way to reset the password without losing access to the ones you saved before. Sorry!

It is unfortunate that Firefox doesn't give any hints... Are you sure it's not something simple like the CAPS LOCK key being on?

Of course every day I logged in to the logins Lockwise! I have verified also Caps Lock. But I have forgotten to write one important changement.

Since I have changed some parameters in about:config this morning I cannot login to Lockwise. I wanted to have more privacy: https://www.privacy-handbuch.de/handbuch_21n.htm You can see the parameters and I have changed them. I think that must be the reason. Which parameters should I change again?

The settings listed on that page do not look like they are related to the password manager or "signons." Are those the only ones you changed?

No except this parameter: extensions.webextensions.restrictedDomains =

Deaktivierung der Add-ons auf Mozillas Webseiten Standardmäßig werden Add-ons auf Webseiten von Mozilla deaktiviert, um die Funktionalität der Dienste sicherzustellen, die auch für interne Funktionen von Firefox genutzt werden:

   accounts-static.cdn.mozilla.net
   accounts.firefox.com
   addons.cdn.mozilla.net
   addons.mozilla.org
   api.accounts.firefox.com
   content.cdn.mozilla.net
   discovery.addons.mozilla.org
   install.mozilla.org
   oauth.accounts.firefox.com
   profile.accounts.firefox.com
   support.mozilla.org
   sync.services.mozilla.com.

Damit gibt es auf diese Webseiten zum Beispiel praktisch keinen Trackingschutz mehr, obwohl die Webseiten teilweise Trackingcode einbinden, den uBlock blockieren würde.

Man kann die Deaktivierung der Add-ons auf diesen Webseiten verhindern, wenn man folgende Variable unter "about:config" auf einen leeren String setzt: extensions.webextensions.restrictedDomains = Diese Einstellung kann aber in Abhängigkeit von den installierten Add-ons zu Problemen bei einigen internen Funktionen von Firefox führen, die diese Webdienste nutzen.

I suggest restoring the default value of that preference (there should be a reset button at the end of that row). It prevents extensions from injecting content scripts into pages on those servers that have special "hooks" into your Firefox or your Firefox Account. But I don't think that is related to the Primary Password.

I have changed all the parameters according to this site: https://www.privacy-handbuch.de/handbuch_21n.htm but not this: extensions.webextensions.restrictedDomains =

I asked a specialist and he said that these parameters damaged the master password and I should contact the developer of Firefox. Please can you give this problem to the developer of the team? There are certain codes that can influence the master password. Thanks for your efforts!
