I have Firefox set to save passwords with a Master password. On numerous sites, that I already clicked "never save password", Firefox still asks me to save password. I am using the latest version of Firefox.

In case you use "Clear history when Firefox closes" or otherwise clear history.

  • do not clear the Site Preferences
  • clearing "Site Preferences" clears exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, and software installation and exception for password and other website specific data
  • clearing "Cookies" will remove all selected cookies including cookies with an "Allow" exception you may want to keep
