Sandboxie 4.12 and Firefox 32.01 save password

Post by Sandlllodan » Sat Sep 13, 2014 11:38 am

I cant save passwords when running Firefox 32.01 Sandboxed (4.12).

I have enabled "Allow direct access to Firefox passwords".

It worked before but not now.

Something new in Firefox maybe?

What can i do to solve this?

I solved it you must add the logins.json file in the profile folder to Direct Access.

I got this from this site.

https://support.mozilla.org/sv/questions/1005827

Firefox 32 and later builds store the passwords in the logins.json file in the profile folder.

Now it works great.

This would be something to add to future versions of Sandboxie?In the applications-Web browsers.

Thanks for the information and the link that you posted.

According to the link:
"Firefox 32 and later builds store the passwords in the logins.json file in the profile folder"

There's a setting in about:config that results in Firefox 32 importing the existing information from the signons.sqlite file, and saving it to logins.json:
signon.importedFromSqlite
Default value is set to true

What I see from examining both files, is that all of the information from signons.sqlite is now in logins.json. It appears that signons.sqlite is not going to be used for future Firefox releases, but I'm going to wait a while to be certain.

Invincea needs to add the logins.json file to the template for Firefox passwords for Fx 32 and up, and keep the signons.sqlite file listed for Fx 31 and below.
