  To test how Firefox works no 'custom' on your system, could you experience in two minutes?

  Create a new Firefox profile

  It will have your plugins installed by system (for example, Flash), but not of themes, 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
  

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

  When you create a new profile, I recommend using the location suggested default and to avoid data loss, do not re - using any folder existing. Before deleting useless profiles, I suggest you make a backup first in case something go wrong.

  Firefox remembers better in the new profile?

• The box that asks if I'd like firefox to remember this password is not pop up, how to activate it?

  I need to know how to activate the box that asks if I'd like firefox to remember this password.

  Normally when you install Firefox this feature is enabled by default. You can check the status in the Options dialog box:

  the button Firefox orange (or the Tools menu) > Options > Security tab

  In the second section, there is a checkbox for "Remember passwords for sites". These articles have more information:

  • Password Manager - don't forget, delete, modify and import passwords saved in Firefox
  • Use a master password to protect stored passwords and logins

  Now... some websites add code to the fields on their forms to block the AutoComplete (which blocks also save connections), so that you can find some sites where Firefox will not save the password for this reason. It may be some workaround solutions, we discussed several times for Yahoo! mail, for example, but since they are long to describe, please post if the problem is specific to the site and provide if possible a link to the login form.
