Customize Firefox to Automatically Save Passwords When Logging in

Understanding Instructions requires more than a headline. The overview below breaks down the key facts, changes, and user impact.

Instructions Overview

After much time searching, we found out that this function is controlled by some javascript files. This process is as follows, after entering the Username, Password into the form and pressing b, javascript will handle:

_onFormSubmit () in nsLoginManager. Js file

PromptToSavePassword in nsLoginManagerPrompter. Js file

_showSaveLoginNotification in nsLoginManagerPrompter. Js file

AddLogin in nsLoginManager. Js file

And to learn more about the process, close Firefox, open nsLoginManagerPrompter. Js file with NotePad (or any Text editor) in the C: Program FilesMozilla Firefoxcomponents folder. Replace the code from lines 642 to 711 as follows:

Var pwmgr = this._pwmgr;

Pwmgr. AddLogin (aLogin);

From this point on, whenever you log in to any website, Firefox will automatically save the relevant information such as username and password without displaying the message as before. However, you can still use the Password management function via the Tools> Options> Security> Saved Passwords menu. But be aware that this method should only be applied to Firefox 3. X browsers and earlier versions. Good luck!
