Need to be able to disable password remembering

Post by carlyoungblood »

I want to turn off password management for security reasons, but can't. Now I've accidentally asked Phoenix to save passwords for one site and I want to go back and disable it now but can't.

If you use the Profile Manager to delete your profile, it will delete the file that keeps track of passwords. Back up your bookmarks, etc fiirst.

They're still working on Satchel, the password manager replacement.

I had the same problem. What I did was add
user_pref("signon.rememberSignons", false);
to my user.js file and the password was then suppressed after restarting Phoenix.
