We use Firefox on an Virtual Deskopt evironment (Citrix). Some user cannot store any passwords in firefox. Just after the login i click save on the password-save-notification, aferwards i check the stored passwords in the settings, and it's empty. Just few users are affected. Other users are able to safe the password on the same Website/URL. I did some tests: I created a new Firefox profile and even a new Windowsprofile (which causes a new %AppData% folder and new User-Registry) and tested it on different VMs. Nothing helps. According to an help-article, the passwords are saved in the files key4.db and logins.json which are located in the firefox profile in %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\*random*.default\ I noticed that those files are not existing in the profiles of the users with the issue. In the profile of other users, this two files are existing. I checked the file permission of the folder, the user has full access, so this shouldn't be the cause. I have no idea. Can someone say why some user cannot store passwords in Firefox, or why those two files are not existing for this users.

Thanks everyone! Btw: We use Firefox 60.5.1esr (64-Bit)

Did you check for active policies that might disable the Password Manager?

Did you check this pref on the about:config page?

  • signon.rememberSignons

You can try to enable signon.debug to see whether that generates useful data in the Browser Console.

What happens of you copy a valid matching logins.json and key4.db pair to the profile folder?

Hi Cor-el, Thanks for your help. It doesn't solve my issue. I did not set any policy, the signon.rememberSignons is set. I tried to copy the two files into the profile which didn't help. I saw some errors in the debug log, but i'm not sure what they mean.

Can you help me

Is there a MP set ? Quote: Login crypto:Prompted for a master password, notifying for passwordmgr-crypto-loginCanceled crypto-SDR.js:225 NS_ERROR_ABORT: User canceled master password entry crypto-SDR.js:84 [Exception... "User canceled master password entry" nsresult:

Try to rename/remove pkcs11.txt (pkcs11OLD.txt) and delete secmode.db (used previously) in the profile folder.

Are there any (external) Password Managers installed in these cases?

Maybe try a new profile and possibly a clean reinstall (i.e. delete the Firefox program folder).

You can create a new profile to test if your current profile is causing the problem.

See "Creating a profile":

If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.

No, the user doesn't use a master password. Those tow files, pks11.txt and secmode.db aren't existing in the firefox profile folder (as well as key4.db and logins.json didn't existed until i copied those from a running one). I allready tried to create several new profiles, which didn't help. Reinstalling firefox won't help i guess because other users on the same machine doesn't have this issue. This line in the logs made me curious: SLAG_ch said

Do you know what it means?
