How do I get automatic fillin of username and password?

more options

I'm running FF version 42.0. On one computer FF automatically fills in my logon info when I open a site that I regularly visit. On this computer i can't find on option to get FF to do that. It doesn't ever ask if I want to save that information when I manually fill it in. In OPTIONS-SECURITY I have "Remember passwords for sites" checked. Obviously there is something else controlling this, but I can't find what.

I finally figured out that Sync was fouling up the saved info. I cancelled Sync and re-Synced and now things seem to be working fine.

Hi, please see if anything here helps - Firefox doesn't save web form entries.

If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.
