When I try to login to my bank website it requires that they send me a security code and then register the device. If I use Firefox it asks me to do this every time I try to login. With Chrome, or Internet Explorer, or MS Edge the bank only asked the first time then those browsers work fine. Only Firefox doesn't work??

A detail like a website remembering you is stored in a cookie.

You can use these steps to make a website recognize and remember you:

  • you can create an "Allow" exception to keep specific cookies, especially in case of secure websites and when cookies expire when Firefox is closed.
  • Options/Preferences -> Privacy & Security
    Cookies and Site Data: Exceptions

In case you use "Clear history when Firefox closes" or otherwise clear history.

  • do not clear the Cookies
  • do not clear the Site Preferences
  • clearing "Site Preferences" clears exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, and software installation and exception for password and other website specific data
  • clearing "Cookies" will remove all selected cookies including cookies with an "Allow" exception you may want to keep
