Hi, I used to use Firefox for quite some time. Recently I migrated from Edge to Firefox again. I logged in My Google, Yandex and other websites using Firefox to remember the information. But After every session (closing firefox and reopening), I have to log in once again repeatedly! Firefox remembers the password and username but does not stay logged in. I found a solution by NOT logging in my Firefox account on the corner of the browser. But I'd very much like to keep logged in my Browser Firefox main account and other website accounts as well. Thank you very much for reading, Stay safe, have a great day.
