I am attempting to change my Firefox account password. I followed the steps listed in https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/change-your-firefox-accounts-password, unsuccessfully. When I enter my current password, then the new password and confirm, I get the error "Unverified session". I can reset my recovery key in the same browser tab, but I can't change my password. Why not?

This error usually means that you aren't using afresh login, but are using an older session.

In case of problems login to the Firefox Account via this website.
