I have my username and password stored on Firefox. When I try to login on Wellsfargo the "save username" check box is automatically checked every single time which is messing with Firefox password saver so when I go to login my username and password are mixed up together. How do I permanently uncheck "save username" check box?

That might be caused by the "form filler." Open that page. Click that box off.

I was talking about the login page.

If there is a special checkbox in the login form to remember you then this setting is possibly stored in a cookie.

You can use these steps to make a website remember such a choice.

  • You can create a cookie "Allow" exception to keep specific cookies, especially in case of secure websites and when cookies expire when Firefox is closed.
  • Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: Exceptions

In case you use "Clear history when Firefox closes" or otherwise clear history.

  • do not clear the Cookies
  • do not clear the Site Preferences
  • clearing "Site Preferences" clears exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, and software installation and exception for password and other website specific data
  • clearing cookies will remove all selected cookies including cookies with an "Allow" exception you may want to keep
