reset laptop to factory setting. win7 HE, firefox 36. Was working prior to reset. Now under the security setting the option to remember passwords is grayed out leaving using master password the only option to select. Does anyone know a fix for the problem.

hello, firefox won't save your passwords when you've set it up to run in permanent private browsing mode ("never remember history" in the options > privacy panel).

Settings for privacy, browsing history and do-not-track

Update; resolved by uninstalling current program and do a complete new install. Apparently current program corrupted.
