Howdy, To turn off the password prompt thingy try the following: You can stop being asked about saving passwords with a setting in Tools / Options. Open Tools / Options and tab once. You are in a list. Then down arrow to security. If you get stuck moving down, up arrow once, then start down arrowing again. When you get to security, start tabbing. You will get to a check box that says remember login information. Uncheck it with the space bar. There is no ok button. Continue to use Firefox as usual.
Take care. Mike. Sent from my iBarstool. Arguing with a woman is like reading a software license agreement. In the end you have to ignore everything, & click I agree. ----- Original Message ----- From: cheez To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Wednesday, February 21, 2018 4:11 AM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Firefox updates/accessibility I've found, that when asked if you want to save your password, it tells you to press the spacebar, then press alt plus n. After doing that, you either press Y or N. That's what I did and do and it works. As far as stopping it from asking all the time, I never really checked into it. Perhaps someone else on this list will know the answer to that.
