I've been using Librewolf on my Linux box for years, but my work PC had Firefox portable on it. I want to make the switch there, but FF isn't listed on the browsers to import from.

I could copy the profile folder, but I'm afraid of overwriting the sane LW defaults with less private FF settings.

How can I solve this? Is there a way to import stuff (plugins, history, etc) without overwriting privacy and security settings? Or perhaps a way to reset privacy and security settings without losing the rest of the preferences?

Edit: I also asked this on LW's official Matrix support channel, and it looks like my fears are mostly unfounded. Thanks to any1here who answered this, and is the Setting Maintainer for the project and overall chill chihuahua.

-- You would only be copying over user prefs, which are things you explicitly set in Firefox, not the Firefox default settings

-- When I create a profile, my user prefs are blank, the defaults are not copied over to the profile at creation? So the only thing that is written there are the prefs I change away from defaults?

-- Basically yes. There are a few things that get written by itself, but nothing important

Hi there, everyone.

Recently, my librewolf install across all computers and operating systems has begun to try to compete with Bitwarden to offer to fill stored logins. This has happened before but quite a while ago. The solution was to go into settings and disable the browser's autocomplete feature for logins and passwords. The issue this time is that I can't seem to find the setting.

Has it been renamed or removed? How do I get librewolf to stop offering to fill login filelds?

Thanks for your time!

When I check my battery, it says "Librewolf is currently blocking sleep and screen locking (Playing audio)". This happens even when there is no audio playing. What's causing this, how do I fix it?
