Entering; chrome://pippki/content/resetpassword.xul brings up a page asking if I want to change my password-not a form. When I click on the page it disappears.

What do you want to do?

If you want to change the master password then you can do this in "Options/Preferences > Security". If you do not want to use a master password then leave the fields for the new MP empty.

If you do not remember the master password then you have two options:

  • use this chrome URL: chrome://pippki/content/resetpassword.xul and click the Reset button
  • delete the logins.json and key3.db files in the Firefox profile folder

Both these methods will cause you to lose all the passwords.
