Firefox Community Forum

Everytime I start firefox it asks for the primary password. I have tried deleting it and changing it and re-enabling it , as suggested but that made no difference. Any ideas?

I have lately found two sites where I cannot log in using Firefox but can, using another browser (Chrome). I get variations of an error message saying a technical problem has been encountered and try again later. I have tried clearing cache and cookies but it doesn't help. I am using version 134.0 (64-bit) running under Windows 11, version 24H2. Has anyone else had this problem? I want to keep using Firefox but this is getting inconvenient.

For the last several weeks, Firefox has been prompting me to "Please enter primary password" multiple times per day or even per hour. If I do so, the dialog box goes away, only to come back again later. I'm finding this very frustrating.

Firefox does always prompt for this when I start it, as it has for many years.

I tried the recommended solution for a similar problem presented here but it didn't help.

This started some time after I updated from 130.0.1 to 133.0, but I have no idea whether the update is the cause.

Can anyone recommend what I can do to solve this or at least to investigate it further?

the create new password function seems to be missing or is not loading on my new version of Firefox - I relied on it regularly, now it is gone.

133.0.3 (aarch64)

Is it disabled somehow?

my previous password for Firefox did not work. I then changed it. Firefox did not allow that one either. Changed it again and that wasn't allowed either.
