I was not sure about that, so here is what I did. 1. Already having the Password Exporter extension installed, I exported all my passwords. 2. I went to [Edit > Privacy & Security > Master Passwords] and selected the Reset Password button. 3. I updated SeaMonkey. 4. I went to [Edit > Privacy & Security > Master Passwords] and established a master password. 5. I used the Password Exporter extension to import the passwords from the exported file. 6. I used a STRONG file eraser to erase the exported file. -- David E.
