How can I clear user names and passwords on Firefox?

I use Firefox and I’m wondering how I can clear user names/passwords that are saved on sites but clear nothing else?

Because for a site I use it has my old user name automatically come up and I always have to clear it and type my new one it and there is no option to save my new user name so I want to clear them all.

Answer #1

Under ‘preferences” you’ll find a security tab. There is a “passwords” tab under that, click it, and then you should see a window pop up with all your usernames / passwords. Click the one you want to delete, and then click “remove” and it should be deleted.

Answer #2

Go to tool then options the the privacy tab look at private data click on the settings button the check the saved password box then when you click the clear private data it the tools button it should take care of this.

Answer #3

On the “tools” tab click on that and scroll down to where it says options.Then click the security little tab and below should be a section that says passwords and click on “saved passwords” and remove the one that you want. Hope that helps =)

Answer #4

I know for clearing passwords you can set it like this::

Tools > Options > Privacy Tab > Settings > and make it so only Saved Passwords is checked, thus enabling you to clear only passwords when you clear it using::

Tools > Clear Private Data…

I don’t know about usernames, I just clear it all once in a while, and I don’t often have this problem. You can try to Google your question, it may come up.

Wow! Great, thanks Jeremy, I’ve never even seen that before.

Answer #6

you can’t if they’re stored on the site. you can only delete your account. If you want to erase your firefox history download ccleaner or advanced system care free both available on cnet. you should do this everyday. I have them both (used ccleaner for a long time never a problem but ASC hs a lot of very useful little tools (good program)
