I need to have a master password again and the only way I can get one is to start all over with a brand new fresh copy of firefox. my computer keeps remembering it no matter how many times i try to uninstall.

in the url bar go to "about:support" where it says profile directory click "open containg folder" delete the folder it opens

all settings, etc will be deleted. There is no need to uninstall

1. is the url br the place that starts with https? 2. I am using a Mac Book Pro and I don't see" support" when I click on "about" and I don't see profile directory anywhere. hence i don't see the rest either. I'm self-taught and about at the end of what I can figure out alone!!
