I know it's like a stupid question. but I've faced this many time problem while changing the my pc.
Can you thing about it.
Thank you and best regards,

The best way to keep all data in Firefox is to copy the profiles folder in
C:\Users\ < user_name > \AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles (with .default at the end) and paste it into the same directory on the new computer.
For more information, password data is stored in key3db and logins.json.
For complete instructions, take a look at these articles support:

I have 4 email address in Thunderbird. How can I add a password for the fourth? It is easy to remove, but I do not know how to add or change. My provider is TurnkeyMail. They say they do not know how to help me and I have to ask to Thunderbird.
Maybe if you use the account settings dialog box?
Also, if you remove the password, the next time you check mail you will be prompted to provide, and then you would probably have to have Thunderbird remember.
(Just guessing because I did have to change a password for myself.)

Hi people warned @ Firefox,.
Could you tell me how it is possible that I have a password saved to my Hotmail account, but it does not appear in the list of the saved passwords? I know that it is saved because when I click on the link Outlook it opens Hotmail, and I can access my emails. How can I recover my password without going to Hotmail and reset?
Thank you!As long as you can get in hotmail now, you stand a good chance of sorting out the password.
I think Hotmail can use a site name, something like 'loginlive'.
It may also be that you have not saved the password on Firefox. Hotmail itself has an option for the connection to persist and to remember, which will use cookies.
Hotmail might have the password reset options, but that may depend on taking you measures in advance to set up an alternate e-mail address or other questions of method and or contact security. This is something that you should be able to do it right now if you are always connected to or able to connect.

All IT gurus out there who know Firefox... have lost the passwords saved when FF created a new profile and delete old files key3.dbf and logins.json profile. Any ideas, anyone?
So it's not a logins.json file?
I see a signons3.txt file and a file signons.sqlite older, if you can try to see if you can import passwords stored in this file.
You can force Firefox to re-import the passwords in the file signons.sqlite and regenerate the file logins.json with the following steps:
- reset the signon.importedFromSqlite pref on the topic: config page by default via the context menu
- Delete the logins.json file in the closed Firefox with Firefox profile folder
When you restart Firefox, then you should have the pref signon.importedFromSqlite with the value set to true.
You have passwords that are imported in the password manager, unless there were errors or signons.sqlite signons3.txt.You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.You can use this button to go to the current Firefox profile folder:

What is "you want to update the password saved for"
Given that I deleted prefs.js and user.js when I connect to any account in the upper-left appears
"you want to update the password saved for" this interferes with the connection and now it won't let me connect you to your e-mail account.
I wonder where it appears? I don't want to use it and want better to delete, but don't know how?
I wanted to add a page in this issue, but as usual Firefox won't like that I guess. So, after this announcement I'll add.Thank you.

Thanks for the very useful reply.
