I have mozilla version 5.0

For some reason mozilla does not ask me if i want to save usernames and etc when I log into sites that already have saved usernames or others sites..I have read around and everything is checked to save...there is no exceptions. There is a master password etc.

Found this after looking around in forums etc...


Make sure that you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode.

   https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Private+Browsing
   You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
   To see all History and Cookie settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting Firefox will: Use custom settings for history
   Deselect: [ ] "Permanent Private Browsing mode" 

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

   Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
