Firefox saves only some passwords

Hi! I can save a lot of account passwords abut not all. Few are not prompting for the option. As for now I found two - https://store.steampowered.com/ and https://evenstadmusikk.no/

I am moving my data from chrome to FF Quantum because I am deleting everything from google (accounts and apps) and I did not have any problems to save them there. Here I have no luck. Just to repeat - Firefox is saving almost all of my passwords. The prompt shows and I have no issues. With these two - no prompt. I tried to edit an account I consider less important - I can't. Only username and password, not the address. I am allowing to save the data (attachment). I have no exceptions. These are no banks or such. And I have no issues to save the data on safari or chrome. How I can have them saved on Firefox when there is no possibility to add data manualy?

Separate Issue; Your System Details shows;

Installed Plug-ins

Shockwave Flash 11.6 r602 Shockwave Flash 10.0 r45
Having more than one version of a program may cause issues. You must remove the older programs. Then get the current full installer.

Also, both are out of date.

Flash: Grab the uninstaller from here: Uninstall Flash Player | Windows {web link} Uninstall Flash Player | Mac {web link}


Then reinstall the latest version.

Note: Windows users should download the active_x for Internet Explorer. and the plugin for Plugin-based browsers (like Firefox).

Note: Windows 8 and Windows 10 have built-in flash players and Adobe will cause a conflict. Install the plugin only. Not the active_x.

Flash Player Version 32.0.0.156

Hi! Thanks for answer - I can't remove something I removed (attachment) I downloaded the FP uninstaller which asked me to install some things I do not want to install (helper). I had to terminate the process to do anything on my mac. I blocked the adobe domain on all my browsers.

I checked them - I want to import only some passwords and organize everything on my own. And I use firefox for a long time and have things on it which are not on any other browser - so I will not download a new one and set it up again.

Hi again. My system shows that I have for some reason a flash player installed and it is ver. 11.6.602

Ok - I uninstalled Flash player with the uninstaller. I tried with evenstadmusikk.no - no luck. I wanted to try the import tool - where is it? There are no passwords to import

I only know in general about importing from Chrome and called for more help.
