Hello,

I'm trying to change some of my old passwords and I want to use the 'generate password' feature in Firefox. However, this is only available on sign up pages and NOT within the about:logins page within Firefox. Is there a way where I could generate passwords from within the about:logins page? Or at least anywhere in Firefox that doesn't involve finding a sign up page to generate a password?

Thanks in advance!

The password field on the webpage can have additional attributes that Firefox uses to generate the password like minlength and maxlength and pattern and without having access to the login form this is not possible.
