My password manager also is unchecked but in mediafire.com my FIrefox log in automatically! Because before I uncheck the password manager the firefox it memorized my password

Try active the password manager and see if there is any password there

Hello, have you tried reseting Firefox? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/reset-firefox-easily-fix-most-problems

If this don't help, you can set FIrefox not to remember form history at all in Options->Privacy->History->Use custom settings for history->Uncheck Remember search and form history + to be sure, you can also check there Clear history when FIrefox closes->Settings and set what should be deleted on closing.

If even this above doesn't work, you can individually delete form history by double clicking the form, pointing cursor at the item you want to delete and press Delete button on keyboard.

There is also addon that can help you manage saved passwords https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/saved-password-editor/

And I've found some options in about:config that might help you, but since I don't know what these exactly do, I recommend backing up your profile first. These options are: privacy.clearOnShutdown.passwords and privacy.cpd.passwords. The first option looks at least like a good workaround.

Hope any of this helps!

Do you mean names and passwords in the Password Manager or do you mean that you are no longer logged on to (remembered by) websites after closing and restarting Firefox?

There is a difference between remembering the name and password in the Password Manager and a "remember me" check box on a web page to log you in automatically.
The latter usually involves the creation of a special "remember me" cookie that is stored on your computer and that is send to the server.
You need to remove such a cookie to make the website forget you.
