Dear Forum,

Maybe this has been already asked but i keep getting the quite opposite when searching.

is there a way that i can save passwords, for autofill purposes, for specific websites in Firefox using GPO?.

I have 4 computers, that are currently deployed with Firefox and all 4 should be able to login to a specific website with a given username and password. I would like to set the username and password for them stored in the Firefox password manager and let it autofill it for them when going to the given website.

Or should i do this using the created shortcut they received, deployed to their systems using GPO?

Thank you in advanced.

I don't see a template for that here: https://mozilla.github.io/policy-templates/

I don't think other browser do this either. I think it would be a security issue to put passwords in GPO.

That being said, passwords are stored in the file "logins.json" in the user profile, so you could just duplicate that file in the four profiles.
