saving passwords
For many websites, my Firefox (68.0.1) does not save my login info. The box is checked in Privacy and Security asking it to do so. I've erased login info for a website, with the idea of changing my login info, but it won't save the subsequent (correct) login. It not only doesn't request to do so, but I go to Saved Logins and it isn't there. That is, for a given website, it once did save the login info, and sometimes doesn't do it any more. What's going on??
Oh, I will add that my blocking list for websites I don't want logins saved for is empty.

Are you using any password add-ons/programs?
Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link}
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?
You can create a new profile to test if your current profile is causing the problem.
See "Creating a profile":
- https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
- http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
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.
I am just using adblock and bookmark management add-ons.
I will try a new profile.
