Why doesn't firefox ask to send a security code every time I log on to my bank website?
When I try to login to my bank website it requires that they send me a security code and then register the device. If I use Firefox it asks me to do this every time I try to login. With Chrome, or Internet Explorer, or MS Edge the bank only asked the first time then those browsers work fine. Only Firefox doesn't work??

In case you use "Clear history when Firefox closes" or otherwise clear history.

Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history":
