Firefox 81.0.1 (32-bit)

Everything was working fine until a couple of weeks ago.

Now whenever I go to a website which requires as login password it asks me for it every time whereas previously it just automatically logged me in.

Even more annoying is that the login boxes are already populated with old login details. However these are not for the most recent login details (username/password).

How do I fix this?

Hi Mike,

I can't speak for these individual websites that aren't automatically logging you in but if you would like to change your username/password on lockwise here is how to do it: Edit or delete a login with the Firefox Password Manager

Did you possibly switch profiles ?

You can open the about:profiles page via the location bar to check whether multiple profiles are present and what profile Firefox currently is using.
