Change Password (v. 55.0.3 - 64 bit)

Post by uncle »

Would like to change my password (without creating a master password) On Saved Login page, there is a Remove option. If I click that, is there an option to enter a new password? Or is there another route? Thank you.

If you remove a saved login then the next time you visit the web page in question FF will not automatically fill in the password box. This allows you to enter a new password, which will then trigger the 'do you want FF to remember the password' pop-up.

Alternatively, don't remove the password, simply go to the relevant page and over type the pre-popluated password with you new one. Doing that will trigger a 'do you want FF to update the password' pop-up.
