Hi. Finally got round to asking this question.

How can I be certain the Pop-up for my Primary Password is from Firefox and NOT a 'fake', pop-up (or some such) displayed by a malicious web-site?

TIA Mike

You can always open Lockwise (about:logins) in a new tab to force a PP prompt if you are in doubt.

Note that using Sync is a possible reason to ask for the Primary Password on startup. This is because the credentials to login to the Sync account are stored in the Password Manager.

Hi!

This answer should be integrated into "Firefox keeps asking me for Primary Password".

Many Greetings! Remo
