Autofill forms not working.

Hi all,

I'm running Firefox 64.0 (64-bit) (Windows 10). I changed the following options

dom.forms.autocomplete.formautofill (changed from "false" to: "true") extensions.formautofill.available (changed from "detect" to "on")

In preferences I can see "Forms & Autofill" section where I have "Autofill addresses" checked. However addresses neither save there nor autofill in forms even if I save them manually. When I start typing a name or press down arrow, nothing happens.

Please note that I'd prefer to use built-in autofill feature rather than add-on.

I test autofill feature on: https://www.roboform.com/filling-test-shopping-cart

I checked all related threads and didn't find solution. Any help?

So what site are we talking about that isn't saving that feature?

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is is causing the problem.

  • switch to the DEFAULT theme: "3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Appearance
  • do NOT click the "Refresh Firefox" button on the Safe Mode start window

Same issue.

Is autofill form feature working for you properly on this page? https://www.roboform.com/filling-test-shopping-cart

When are details saved? I saved details manually and they don't appear in any form I try..

Just to add, I'm based in EU.

Does it mean that this feature is not available for non-US users?
