Suggest Strong Password keeps offering the same stale password.
Paypal's going through making me change my password, and I used the password generator for that. I guess something went wrong again, because it wants me to change my password yet again.
The problem with Firefox, is that when I hit Suggest Strong Password, all I get is the same one I already used. This is no help. Paypal says "The password has been used recently. Please try another one."
I expect it would generate a fresh one if I restarted Firefox, but that isn't always convenient, depending on what's loaded in other tabs, or in the process of downloading. So let's skip suggestions of restarting.
How do I get Firefox's password generator to generate a fresh password?

Are you removing the old login and create a new login as it sounds you try to generate a password for an existing login ?
Wot cor-el
It would be a new password for the same account.
Try downloading another copy of Firefox and run it from the folder to see if you have the same issue.
