Automatic form fill used to work, but when I update Firefox it stopped working. I can't find anywhere where I can enable it.

Hope someone can help me.

Also make sure that you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode (Never remember history).

  • Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history"
  • Deselect: [ ] "Always use Private Browsing mode"

Hi froggy, Thank you for your question, I understand that automatic form filling in Firefox has stopped. There are two places to check. If it is a password for one site only, make sure that there are no duplicates in the Password Manger for this site: Password manager - Remember, delete, change and import saved passwords in Firefox

Or, if it is just generally, please follow these instructions to toggle the preference: Control whether Firefox automatically fills in forms

I hope this helps.
