If you are experiencing issues with saved passwords or logins dropping out in Mozilla Firefox, there are several potential reasons and solutions to consider:
Clearing Cookies and Cache: Sometimes, clearing your browser's cookies and cache can resolve login issues. However, keep in mind that doing this will also sign you out of any websites you are logged into, and you'll have to log in again after clearing the data.
Check Firefox Settings: Ensure that Firefox is set to remember passwords and that it's not clearing saved passwords automatically. To check this:
Open Firefox and click on the menu button (three horizontal lines) in the upper-right corner. Select "Options" (or "Preferences" on macOS). Go to the "Privacy & Security" tab. Under the "Logins and Passwords" section, make sure that "Remember logins and passwords for websites" is checked. Extensions/Add-ons Conflict: Sometimes, browser extensions or add-ons can interfere with password management. Try disabling extensions one by one to see if any of them are causing the issue. If the problem is resolved after disabling an extension, consider removing it or finding an updated version.
