Option "Remember passwords for sites" is not save
Firefox does not save my selected option to remember passwords. After a new installation (6.02) on Windows 7 but import my profile files from another Windows 7 machine (6.02). (The profile saved successfully previous passwords.)
Under Options > Security, I click "Remember passwords for sites" and close the control panel - but whenever I return to this setting, the option is clicked. This happens within a session open after moving between sites, not just for new sessions. I emptied all exceptions, and 'Continuous browsing history' and 'clear history' is certainly not checked in the history management settings.
My previous password information is all there and saved in password manager, I am just unable to get Firefox to allow using saved passwords or store my selection to save passwords.
Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the acceleration hardware or extensions is the origin of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > appearance/themes).
- Makes no changes on the start safe mode window.

I choose to remember the story in the Privacy tab and remember passwords for sites on the Security tab in the Options, but when I close Firefox, it doesn't remember my cookies and I have to make the connections manually everytime I open Firefox.
In case you use "clear history of Firefox closing:
- do not delete 'Cookies' and 'Site preferences.
- Tools > Options > Privacy: history: [X] clear history of Firefox closing > settings
- https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/clear+recent+history
Note that compensation "Preferences of Site" clears all exceptions for cookies, images, windows pop up, installation of software and passwords.
If clearing cookies doesn't work, then it is possible that the cookies.sqlite file that stores the cookies is corrupted.
Rename (or delete) cookies.sqlite (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete other files to present as cookie cookies.sqlite - journal in the profile folder of Firefox in the case where the cookies.sqlite file has been corrupted.

After the ESR 38.0.1 (and later upgrade to 38.0.5) the "Remember passwords for sites" setting is disabled after the closure of a browsing session. If I like the beginning of a new session, it works exactly as expected, but the setting never persists between sessions.
