The 'Edit Password' option in Thunderbird-Options-Privacy&Security-Saved Passwords is greyed out. How can I edit the passwords for my Gmail and Sky email accounts?

Link not very helpful as I am not proficient in French and screenshots do not match my version of Thunderbird. However, have solved the problem. The 'Edit Password' option is only active when you Right click on an entry if 'Show Passwords' has beeen selected. When passswords are hidden, the edit option is greyed out.
