  Do you hear the names and passwords in the password manager or do you mean that you are connected is no longer on to (remember to) Web sites after the closing and restarting Firefox?
  
  There is a difference between remembering the name and the password in the password manager and a check box "remember me" on a web page.
  
  The latter usually involves the creation of a special "remember me" cookie that is stored on your computer and which is sent to the server.
  
  If that "remember me" cookie is deleted or is corrupted or is not send to the server, then the server remember that you and you must connect once again.

• Windows 7 doesn't remember the folder views.

  original title: Windows 7 doesn't remember the folder views. Microsoft is pathetic.

  Once more, I find it quite pathetic that Microsoft Windows 7 as Vista, such as Windows XP and all other operating systems M$ has developed can not EVEN remember the layout for the records.

  What is THE POINT of having more customization options in solution for users to set, Explorer if your code Explorer STUPID don't even BOTHER to remember. Users bother to customize their desktops and file only to discover that their work is broken as soon as the PC restarts or in Windows 7 Decides to forget or to crush stuff in the registry.

  It is also pathetic that M$ has removed most of the "individual" customization of Windows XP folder now opt for a "point of view fits all approach!". (Ie the deletion of the folder option "View tab / remember this layout of records"). I can't decide if a file opening should have the "Navigation bar" to the left. Now, if a folder has the navigation bar, hey look, ALL MY FILES open with the navigation bar now! Yay! NOT.

  Even with this, HE has YET to forget every customization that you made to your files!

  Things going on in my head when I'm on Windows 7:

  Mmmm. I'd like my account to have this icon or bitmap image please. There we go, very nice. Reset. Mmmm. Why is he returned to show all the file type icons in this new folder. Oh God, worst yet! NOW ALL MY FILES ARE RETURNED TO THE DETAILS VIEW. B * llocks, I've spent hours a lot, a lot, a lot (over time) establishing this batch! Gee thanks to shake me more M$. You've obviously spent a lot of money and many hours asking your BETA users which would p * ss them off the most when you use Windows Explorer. Voice of tester beta geek: "uh Yes, I think I was very p * ssed if all of a sudden he returned for more details on all my folders in Explorer. Microsoft: "OK, we're going to take care to include that then...". "Everything what is p * ss you off." Geek: "Yes, while your at it, if the navigation bar appears on EVERY issue and doesn't even have a shortcut key, so I had to reach for my mouse and go to a menu rather than quickly display and hiding cases of need, which would probably be p * ss me off really bad." Microsoft: ' hey this is a great idea!

  Folder view settings should be remembered INDIVIDUALLY for the love of God, on a folder by folder basis.

  I think that the removal of this option, and becomes the fact that Microsoft have removed code rather that actually fixing the code first place is a sign of how pathetic software from Microsoft.

  I hope Apple start to develop their PC rather than just Apple Mac operating system sometime in the future.

  It will ultimately be the nail in the coffin for Micro$ and personally, I'll be happy to see the back of them.

  I'm a PC and I am upset that Microsoft Windows Explorer doesn't bother to remember how I presented my files.
  
  If you want to know what I'm talking about m $ look the Apple Mac operating system and copy what they do (you know, the usual).
  At least they seem to know what I'm talking about.

  If you think I'm the only one who is upset at this by the way: http://www.google.co.uk/#hl=en&source=hp&q=windows+7+remember+folder+settings&btnG=Google+Search&meta=&aq=0&oq=Windows+7+remember+folder&fp=a60718907b4ba39b

  21.5 million users would disagree with you.

  DESIRED EFFECT

  To have a folder and its subfolders all use the same view model AND having the view model to reflect the disposal of one of the folders.

  WHAT YOU NEED TO DO

  First, you must realize that Win7 treats these two very different applications:

  1. make subfolders use the same model from view as the parent folder.

  2 configure how a view model is laid out.

  My confusion is I thought that changing the layout of the folder parent by clicking on 'Apply to subfolders' it applies to the layout of the parent folder, but all it's means "all look to the model of display as well as the parent folder.

  Understand that when you say "optimize this folder for: * music *" IT IS NOT AUTOMATICALLY CHANGE THE LAYOUT of the folder! Only it it's a music folder (or general or images or other) and ALL TIME NOW ON the time the * music model is changed (via right click on any * music folder > organize menu > folder and search options > view tab > apply to records) THEN the layout PAGE ONLY will be updated.

  So unfortunately, Xaero_Payne solution by itself will result in the 'problem' that everyone here seems to have. You do BOTH steps to make it work. (I know it's easy to chatting about M$, but instead of pi$ $ in the wind at home, we can as well get into their heads and understand how to use what we have).

  STEP BY STEP

  You can do these two processes in any order, but I want to do such as this, because I can then more easily see changes. For the example below, I'll do their music files and I'll apply the Details view template.

  R process: make subfolders using same view model

  Right-click on the Parent folder that contains all of the subfolders > properties > Customize tab > check also apply... subfolders > select * music * (for this example) > apply then OK

  Process 1: Customize and apply the provision of fashion model music

  Find or create a folder you want to use the view model.

  Select them * details * view (or list, large icons, etc.) and then customize the layout as you wish. Add new desired columns and rearrange them as you like.

  Organize the menu > folder options and research > display tab > apply to records. THIS MAY BE THE MOST IMPORTANT OF THIS PROCESS because otherwise he doesn't know you want ALL the * music * files to be like this.

• Export as that doesn't remember the last used settings

  Trying to get used to the use of export as instead of the old economy for the Web. However, it doesn't seem to remember the last settings I used. Save for Web still don't this, no problem. It's quite embarrassing and I have always used save for Web for this reason. Is there a way to remember? I have changed my preferences to export but it was just for the Quick export. Any ideas?

  Do not. The new export module is not finished and it still lacks a lot of features (like the color management and the support of metadata). IMO, it was shipped prematurely.

  The code of save for Web is based on the old ImageReady and certainly need a review/rewrite, which I do not know "export as" will provide beautifully. But until it's over, using SFW.

• Firefox is to remember the passwords that I said not to do so. browser reopens after computer restart and I still can't connect. It's really annoying.

  I'm not stupid. I know how to enable or disable password remembering thing in options, but it simply doesn't. He remembers the passwords and logins from sites that I decide to do not. I can restart my computer and Open firefox and go straight into my email online account. It is very annoying.

  Note that Firefox stores cookies of tabs open as session data in the sessionstore.js file, so if you leave tabs open when you close Firefox then you can always be connected the next time.

  You can set the browser.sessionstore.privacy_level pref 2 (never) or 1 (not HTTPS) on the topic: config page to disable the registration of cookies via session restore.

  The browser.sessionstore.privacy_level_deferred pref is used when you do not reopen last session automatically via "show my windows and tabs from last time" and use the same values.

• Firefox doesn't do the colors or the backgoround images

  I have Firefox Developer Edition installed on two computers (two different connections to the internet too). The browser on the machine 'A' renders the page correctly with the background color and images. The browser on the computer 'B' does not have background colors or images. Example screenshot below. In my view, that the installation of the system is the same on both (AFAIK). Does anyone else have this problem? Will appreciate any suggestions for a fix.

  I can't think of a good reason for it, and I'm not aware of any other setting for this, which makes me think of 'broken' or 'bug' or 'module '.

  To test the problems of settings:

  Create a new Firefox profile

  A new profile will be your plugins installed by system (for example, Flash) and extensions (e.g., security suite toolbars), but no themes, other extensions or other customizations. It should also have databases of completely fresh settings and cool a cache folder.

  Out of Firefox and start in the profile using Start Manager > Search box (or run):

  firefox.exe -P
  

  Do not delete anything here!

  Any time want to switch profiles, exit Firefox and return to this dialog box.

  Click on the button to create a profile, assign a name like TEST072215 and ignore the ability to move the profile folder. After you create the profile, select it and start Firefox in this profile.

  Any difference?

  When you return to the Profile Manager, you might be tempted to use the button to delete the profile. It's a little too easy to accidentally delete your 'real' profile, so I recommend you to resist the temptation. If you don't want to clean up later, I suggest to make a backup of all your profiles first in case something go wrong.

• Firefox application to remember the passwords on most sites, but not on all. I tried everything suggested in Firefox Help, but the problem persists.

  On three of my sites regularly visited, Firefox does not ask to remember my password, so I have to enter each time. On most other sites I visit, he asked and remember the password. I went through all the steps as starting Firefox in safe mode, troubleshooting extensions and modules, etc., but these sites will not be still retain or ask me to remember the password. What else can I try?

  Hello, Web sites can define that the browser should not record passwords in their source code, see usernames and passwords are not saved

  you could use an addon like this to work around these restrictions: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/remember-passwords

• Firefox don't remember the tabs (pinned or not) on shutdown.

  Okay, I'm trying to breathe deeply here and not to lose my head.

  I use two computers side by side. Both are Win7 64 bit... * TWO * machines began to play until tonight. The second machine was running FF locked in a minimized state, and after a few words of curse of choice and an hour of my life, I was able to google-shoot the problem (finding my way here and the answer).

  However, this machine exposes the most frustrating behavior. It won't save a sessions/tabs/pinned app tabs. It worked very well for well over a year and decided to OOP bed earlier.

  To try to solve this problem, as suggested on this site:
  -J' deleted restore session .js files in the profile folder. It did not help.
  -J' checked and double checked and recorded my history settings of the browser and privacy that I saw on this site, they seem to all be defined properly (Show Windows and tabs is selected, and I chose to keep the browser history).

  Overall, none of these things have worked. In addition:
  -I have not installed the extensions or played with settings.
  -J' restarted the computer.
  -J' checked CCleaner and is not set to fiddle with anything associated with FF.

  It seems strange that both machines will play until the same night, and both are mind-bogglingly frustrating.

  Help, please!

  Well, I think I got this thing licked, and Mozilla better be careful here...

  I think that the problem was caused by advertising windows, as when I started FF and tried to restore the session, he was trying to tell me that the session, which was reduced to a minimum was rubbish hotels I had not come, but I HAD seen a recent pop up ad that ran a title that I'm sure it was the same.

  So, here: Mozilla - somehow stop pop - ads to force a new window in Firefox and it should stop many of these garbage to occur.

• Firefox don't remember the username and password for Constant Contact

  Contact updated their login this week, and now Firefox does not save the login information and password, even though I set it to do. Have tried all of the fixes suggested in Firefox Help. Works great for everything as usual, but is no longer remembered constantly in touch once I close Firefox and restart. Save the user name as long as I do not close Firefox, it won't save password to anything.

  This site uses use autocomplete = off to prevent Firefox to save and fill in the name and the password.

  You can remove autocomplete = off with a bookmarklet to register the name and the password of Firefox.

• Firefox doesn't load the URLS of sites window, but will charge by search engine

  Firefox will not load any site that I type in the URL window. It loads any location of the tile to start or Google search results page. But never directly.

  The problem started a week ago.

  The problem persists in safe mode. I have a few extensions and plug-ins (No Add ons) but I have not installed new in the last year.

  I uninstalled it and installed a clean place. I did a refresh. Hardware accelerator is disabled. The only thing I have not tried is to create a new profile.

  I'm running Win 7 Ultimate 64 (although Mozilla is x 86).

  My security system is provided by Zone Alarm, but it has been the case for at least five years and never had a problem before.

  Any suggestions?

  Thank you

  The most likely cause is a bug in Firefox that has not yet been set.
  You need to rename a particular profile data file. Your browsing history will be lost, but the browser working again. It is hoped that there will be a better fix in Firefox itself soon.

  Current fix suggested. (Bug 1180419 partner)
  Rename the places.sqlite file as explained in this recently revised article.
