Firefox is not remebering my username and passwords on sites. I have indicated that it do so in my preferences, but it is not doing it. Frustrated. Please help I'm using the latest Firfox on Windows

Websites remembering you and automatically log you in is stored in a cookie.
- Create an allow cookie exception (Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: Exceptions) to keep such a cookie, especially for secure websites and if cookies expire when Firefox is closed.
- In Private Browsing - Use Firefox without saving history mode all cookies are session cookies that expire if that session is ended, so websites won't remember you.
- Do not use Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox to clear the "Cookies" and the "Site Preferences"
Clearing "Site Preferences" clears all exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, software installation, and passwords.
To see all the History and Cookie settings, select:
- Firefox (Tools) > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history"
