I select "ask for autofill password and logins" and it works, as soon as I leave browser, it resets to blank in the selection box - is this because of no master
Until last week, login info and password were always filled in. Suddenly they were not. I went to the menu and to login and passwords and "autofill" was selected. I then went to settings and privacy and checked "ask for login and password.......". Then I tried some and it fills it in. However as soon as I leave the browser it "deselects" that box and it no longer works. I suspect this is due to some update, but would really appreciate it if I had knowledge of this change before hand and also how to fix it so that it works like it should. Thanks.

If you you use Roboform or have the "Trend Micro Password Manager" installed then uninstall this application via the Windows Control Panel.

Note: Some software, like Advanced SystemCare with Surfing Protection, can protect files in the Firefox profile folder against changes. If you have such software then check the settings or uninstall this software.

Thanks so much for your quick response which seems to have easily fixed the problem. Can't tell you how much I appreciate it. Thanks again. Kudos!
I don't have any of those programs mentioned in the responses on my computer. The autofill works for a while and then it stops. I keep having to back in and put the checkmark back in. I even set a master password and it still happens. Quite Annoying.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
- switch to the DEFAULT theme: "3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Themes
- do NOT click the "Refresh Firefox" button on the Safe Mode start window
