Firefox upgraded the other day to the latest version. I am normally up to date on upgrades. It lost all my old passwords and even though I have clicked save passwords etc it doesn't now save any future passwords either. Please can you help. Thanks a lot. Steve

Look on your desktop. Do you see a folder called; Old Firefox? Look inside. Look for the folder with the latest creation date.
