How can I save a username and password when nothing pops up asking if I want to save my password? There are several sites like Paypal and I'd like to store my password.

Type about:preferences#security<Enter> in the address bar.

Under Passwords, select Remember. To check the passwords you have listed, press Saved Passwords.

Sites already save my passwords. I want to add some sites that don't already ask me "do you want to save the password". My Remember box is checked already. Thanks for the suggestion.

Remember Passwords {web link} Patches the original Login Manager to allow saving of passwords on forms which otherwise suppress it.

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode (Never remember history).

  • Firefox > Preferences > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history"
  • Deselect: [ ] "Always use Private Browsing mode"

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

  • Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window
