How do I "refresh" a password in Password Manager if it was done in another Browser (IE)?
I had my Facebook password saved in Firefox. When I updated password a year ago, I did it in Explorer as Firefox was not loaded on that computer.
Now that I am back using this computer with Firefox fulltime, I realize password was never "updated" in Password Manager. Problem is it never prompted me to save the password and cannot recall what it is anymore. And Firefox autopopulates the original password when I go to enter a new facebook password.
Is there any way to "refresh" Firefox or get it to prompt a request to save the password? The key does not show up in the browser bar and wonder if somewhere in the options or settings, I can prompt it?
Thanks in advance

I don't know if you can edit the existing entry, but you could delete it here:
"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Security > "Saved Passwords"
I did try that, however it still does not prompt a request to save the new password. Thanks anyway. Any other ideas welcome

Use these steps to remove saved (form) data from a drop-down list:
- click the (empty) input field on the web page to open the drop-down list
- highlight an entry in the drop-down list with the mouse or cursor Down key
do not click the mouse or press the Enter key - press the Delete key (on Mac: Shift+Delete) to delete the highlighted entry
