When ever I start Firefox it asks for the master password. I am not using sync. OS is Windows 11. On my laptop which is running the same OS it does not ask for the master password, even though they are both pointing to the same homepage of google.com

I have tried disabling the password and re-enable, that does not work. If there is another setting I haven't found it yet.

I found the issue is with an add-on. For anyone else going through this, first try starting in safe mode. If that works then it's most likely an add-on. Disable one add-on at a time until you find it.
