Usually I like that Firefox remembers passwords. However, I no longer want it to remember the password for my Yahoo mail account. How can I stop it from remembering just that password, without losing the other remembered passwords?

You can use these steps to remove saved (form) data from a drop-down list:

  1. click the (empty) input field on the web page to open the drop-down list
  2. highlight an entry in the drop-down list with the mouse or cursor Down key
    do not click the mouse or press the Enter key
  3. press the Delete key (on Mac: Shift+Delete) to delete the highlighted entry

Details like websites remembering you (log you in automatically) are stored in a cookie. So you can clear the Yahoo cookies to make Yahoo forget about you in case you put a checkmark in the box to have Yahoo remember you.

You can inspect and manage the cookies for the domain in the currently selected tab:

  • Click the "Site Identity Button" (globe/padlock) on the location bar
  • Click "More Information" to open "Tools > Page Info" with the Security tab selected
  • Click "View Cookies" to view the cookies for the domain in the currently selected tab
  • Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
