Deleting saved autofill does not work anymore

As of version 55.0.3 (64-bit) I cannot delete the saved autofills anymore. Highlighting the previous entry and pressing delete just closes the entry selection.

Firefox is up to date. Starting Firefox in save mode did not solve the problem, although I always used the mouse to highlight the entry and then delete it. Now I discovered that highlighting using the arrow keys does the trick.

Problem solved.

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/update-firefox-latest-version?cache=no Did you update Firefox to the latest version 55.0.3

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?

That was very good work. Well done. Please flag your last post as Solved Problem so others will know.

Always remember to use the arrows and Not the mouse.
