Where do I locate the list of saved passwords in Firefox? The current password manager (Firelock) only allows me to remove passwords one at a time.

I have over 1000 passwords on my machine 90% of them are not mine.

So please tell me where the file for saved password is om my machine so I can either delete the list completely, and start it again, or so that I can edit it with a text Editor.

This is not a Chrome machine.

The logins are stored in JSON format in logins.json in the Firefox profile folder. You can remove this file to reset all logins.

You can export the logins to a CSV file in Lockwise and edit this file and re-import this file in Lockwise.

You likely need to set signon.management.page.fileImport.enabled = true on the about:config page to be able to import the logins.

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can click the button to "Accept the Risk and Continue".
