I've used Roboform for many years....and I fear my long relationship wit it is over.
It no longer attaches to the current versions of Waterfox, PaleMoon or FireFox.
It hasn't worked with Opera for many months.

It is a pain to log onto Roboform, find the site, go to edit and copy/paste the username and password.
Auto fill is gone.
And I can find no way to set up a password save for a new website.

I am using the current versions of all software.
And this has been non-functional for several weeks.

Roboform says to go to FireFox addons for help, but there is no add for Roboform that I can see.

Seems like I'm screwed....and there must be others out there with the same problem.
Or I am overlooking something!!!!!!!
I sure don't feel comfortable using the password manager for FireFox...I want something separate.

So, is there a magic fix?

Or is it time to move on to a better, usable Password Manager...and if so, which is the best and easiest.
Does anyone have experience with Avast! Password Manager...that seems like an option.

Please...HELP!!!!!!

Program called LastPass works better.

Paper and a pencil is all I'll ever use.

It's worked for years.

I don't think Firefox supports that any more....I don't see an AddOn for it.

a reply to: DontTreadOnMe The banking passwords are most important. Im not so worried about the rest. You can call me paranoid but I dont trust any program or site to store and autofill my Passwords. I keep a list under my keyboard. I do let amazon auto fill, and ATS as well, but never my bank or credit cards ( which are paid in full monthly) I keep those passwords in my mind and in my safe

Another thing you could consider is keeping your passwords in an encrypted text file using a program such as VeraCrypt.

Since you aren't comfortable with Mozilla or Chrome's password manager, peruse this list. I use the aforementioned, so I can't be of much help to you.

Do you feel they browser password managers are totally secure, even for banking info??

Not familiar with that, but I will look into it, thanks.

Sorry, should have checked back sooner. As long as you use a master password, it's in the middle range for security. But then, all of them are only as secure as the latest exploit figured out by a teen in his parents basement.

LIke losing it, or having the dog eat it.....or.....

Not only that, but very long and secure are a PITA to manually type in correctly.
That is my biggest objection.

Yeah, true.

I'm guilty of using the same six passwords but none of my stuff is critical.

OK now......

Roboform does not work/interact with PaleMoon or Waterfox.....

BUT...all of a sudden, it works again with FireFox....and after almost a year...it works again with Opera.
Color me confused....but some grateful LOL
FTR, this is all 64-bit windows
