    Hi, there is a a small bug in the extension, or an error , you can try that
    The problem is that the option profilepassword.uninstall.delete_password is in two different files.
    C: \ Documents and Settings \ Name\Windows \ Application Data \ Mozilla \ Firefox \ Profiles \ <Name of profile> \ prefs.js. But it is there when it was passed to false.

    C: \ Documents and Settings \ <Name Name\Windows> \ Application Data \ Mozilla \ Firefox \ Profiles \ <Name of profile> \ extensions \ (b9615918-d3de-44a4-AB65-76df7ea1f1c1) \ defaults \ preferences \ prefs. js. Normally it is true. Edit the two files. Profilepassword.uninstall.delete_password If the option is false, the move to true. If the option is not in the prefs.js of profile, add:

    user_pref "profilepassword.uninstall.delete_password", true)

    Uninstall the extension in safe mode in Firefox. Normally the password should be gone.
