Hi all and Happy Thursday!! I've burned thru 4 pairs of readers trying to figure out how to solve my issue on my own so now i'm reaching out...lol! When loging into various websites, ( for example Amazon " Firefox auto suggests my " Firefox account login name " and no other, when I hover into the website's login field? This occurs on all websites i try to log into and can't seem to figure out how to delete this suggestion. I have tried it while logged out AND in of my Firefox account, I have cleared all cache, history Blah blah blah. Of course I have a list in my saved " Logins and Passwords " that i usually draw from to fill in login fields. Is there a setting I'm missing or am I really as dumb as I look :)? Running Firefox 82.0.3 Windows 10 Home 2004, also running late for a meeting! Cheers!

That could be the form filler built into Firefox. Click in the field, enter a character or two and STOP ! Using the arrow keys, highlight an unwanted entry. Then press Shift > Delete Repeat as needed.
