Hello !

How can I retrieve password and usernames that are saved in the login forms of visited websites ?

I know how to see "password and login" in Mozilla settings (Private life & Security / Saved Passwords).

But on some websites, the connection to my account is automatic : password and usernames are saved in the login forms (like cookies may be ?), and they are not present in Mozilla setting and Saved Passwords.

I didn't find anything in the web on my request.

Is it possible te recover this recorded data ?

Thank you by advance.

I log in periodically to a specific web site, in which I have an account. Recently, I cancelled (deleted) that account. I also deleted in the Firefox parameters that URL/login/password, and all related cookies. Later, I created a new account on that web site, using Firefox in private mode only, and it works fine. But Firefox prompts, in the login field of that web site, the old account, although for all I know there is no trace of it in the parameters. Not only do I use it in private mode, I also tested using a VPN - just in case the prompt would come from the remote website - and it still prompts that ancient login. Why is that prompt appearing and how do I get rid of it (without affecting all the other websites I use without a problem)? Thanks.

I have firefox as my default browser with Bitwarden extension. I use yahoo and sign in for browser. I also have outlook for email. Maybe a month back, when signing into yahoo, I would type in the first few letters and bitwarden login options would appear. They still do but selecting one seems to do nothing now. If I open bitwarden and try autofill from the login file, it says it cannot autofill, items must be copied and pasted. Its odd that in yahoo home page login the options appear but do not autofill as they used to maybe a month ago.

Bank site allows autofill for username but does not allow autofill or manual fill for password. Access to the site worked fine 3 weeks ago. Autofill works with MS Edge.

Firefox does a good job of filling in username and password prompts. Occasionally, it doesn't. The sign-in prompt for American Airlines is an example. Go to AA.COM and click on the "Log in" button. The prompt box labeled, "AAdvantage® # or username", is not filled in; but the prompt box labeled, "Password" is recognized and filled in. There must be something about the wording or the HTML used for the first box that obscures the requested information.

Not sure I understand this.... I know all about the saved logins & passwords that I can find under settings and I use that list regularly. But sometimes I have a site that isn't listed in my list. Perhaps it's been a very long time since I used it etc...

But when I click on the user or login field for the site, a list of user names will appear and it's obvious that these are not related to this site. For example I'm on a specific site this morning and I see a list of 6 user names, including my regular email address, another email that I sometimes use, 3 variations of a common user name I use, and a long number.

If I go to the saved password list and search for this site, it isn't listed. If I sort by user name, I can't really search for the usernames that are more common but I can look for the long number and 1 variation of the user name

• Bulleted list item I see the long number and the site it's associated with and it's not this site.
• Bulleted list item I do not see the specific variation of the user name

So....

• Bulleted list item Why does the user name that is a long number appear in a list when I click on the user field at the website when it's associated with another website?
• Bulleted list item Why does a variation of the user name appear in the same list when it is not shown anywhere in the saved password list.

I've seen it happen many times and what's really strange is that on 1 site clicking on the user name field will bring up a list that contains unassociated user names and another website might bring up a different list of unassociated user names! Really strange. Where are these tidbits of information being saved?

Hi, When I go to a specific website, my password is being auto filled to the page's search bar. I have created an Autofill exception for this site, and it still happens. To stop it, I have to disable password Autofill on entirely. I probably don't need to say this is a security issue. Every time I visit this site my password is being sent to their servers as a search query. I'm using Firefox Android. Please help

idk if this is the right place to file bug reports

in the reddit login sreen  if you click on the email box it's supposed to pop up a saved passowrd bar—for you to choose fr multiple logins, or atleats fill automatically, but that doesnt happen for reddit, infact—it doeant recognize the email field at all, when clikcing the passwors field it pops uo noramlly and auto fills—but JUST the passowrd, the email field stays empty.

this is some info: 150.0a1 (Build #2016147111), 887fb4b92f0ce8fab484377f1715d972ead217cc GV: 150.0a1-20260303095635 AS: 150.20260228050320 OS: Android 14. Galaxy A15 4G

hope this help! and v150 is an amazing update!

It's very hard for me to find where to go after clicking on the three line symbol in right hand corner. But when I finally did locate in Settings the section on passwords and sign-in info I turned that off. I was happy until I again signed into Mozilla and Amazon and my email address (which I use for ID) continued to pop up. Why do these things have to be so hard to find and then to make work. Please help. Thank you.

Hello, I'm really confused about the autofill feature. I've been using this feature for years and noticed that on some website the password field is filled in, but the username is not. I searched the support pages and forum topics, and it seems that is a very common issue. According to what I read, it could be either:

1. The webmaster decided to tell the browser not to fill in the username, but let the password to be filled in.
2. The webpage use some out of standard approach to name the username field, so Firefox is unable to recognize it.

What annoys me is that there's no way to understand if it's the first or the second case, so you just accept it.

It would be very helpful if Firefox could:

1. Provide a way to understand what the real problem is.
2. Add an option to override moronic security approach of the web designer, so the "do-not-fill-in-this-field" property is overridden.

Thanks to everyone who took the time to read this!

The Firefox auto login of a default site feature has become a supreme annoyance. Being insufficiently Firefox savvy to be able to disable this unhelpful feature (in my case). Can someone please help with avoiding or disabling this feature so that the initial site selection is left to the user, other than totally avoiding Firefox which I otherwise find highly functional and enjoyable.

Firefox comes up with my business ID "[email 2 removed]@outlook .com" when I try to access my normal email account "[email 1 removed]@msn.com". Have not been able to get around it. Egde however will always access the pena_rudy.... ID.

I allow all passwords to auto fill on websites but there are 2 I specifically want to store it in ff but want to only do it manually. Is it possible to segregate these 2?

I have been using Firefox for Android and Kaspersky Password Manager for many years without a hitch until v148 of Firefox, which seems to have broken things. Has anyone else seen this problem? With KPM installed (and all the necessary permissions correctly set) whenever I visit a login page the KPM icon should appear so I could select the login and password details to automatically fill in. It no longer does this with v148. I had been in touch with Kaspersky support and they were unable to help so I re-installed v147 and everything was back working again, so I am guessing the issue is with a change in v148. Has anyone else seen (or resolved) this issue. Many thanks FYI My Android is v13 on a Pixel4a and KPM is v9.2.113.65

At some point I thought it would be a good idea to save my password for Amex and wells fargo so that I didn't have to enter it every time. When I go to their websites from firefox, they automatically populate at the sign in screen. How do I erase that ?
