Despite being asked to, Firefox never remembers passwords.

Firefox refuses to implement a pw for pages I am re-visiting. This means that even though the correct pw is stored by Firefox (I checked), every time I return to a pw-protected page, I have to enter the pw. I am also asked whether I want Firefox to remember the pw; even though I repeatedly tick the box that says I do, the next time we go through the whole palaver again.

I have: 1. Checked the pw in Preferences; 2. Restarted in safe mode and with all add-ons disabled; 3. Done a reinstal of Firefox; 4. Disabled the old places.sqlite file (this was to deal with a problem of Firefox hanging, now cured).

None of the above has affected the problem. I would very much like to avoid a clean reinstall, as it can take half a day to reset everything correctly. Any help gratefully received.

Websites remembering you and automatically log you in is stored in a cookie.

  • Create an Allow cookie exception to keep such a cookie, especially for secure websites and if cookies expire when Firefox is closed.
  • Firefox > Preferences > Privacy > Cookies: Exceptions

In case you are using "Clear history when Firefox closes":

  • do not clear the Cookies
  • do not clear the Site Preferences

Note that clearing "Site Preferences" clears all exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, software installation, and passwords.

Clearing cookies will remove all specified (selected) cookies including cookies with an allow exception.
