Additional Full RoboForm Toolbar Information
RoboForm Installer Installs Adapter Automatically into Firefox
RoboForm installer automatically installs Adapter into Firefox 3.0 to 4.0.
If you check "Install Adapter that allows RoboForm to work in Firefox" box in RF installer.
| Browser Version | XPI file to use if not installed automatically |
| Firefox 3.0 to 4 beta X | roboform-firefox-3-4-frozen.xpi |
Turn off native browser password managers as they interfere with RoboForm: In Tools > Options > Security > Passwords uncheck Remember Passwords.
Alt+Click does not work in Firefox
Alt+Click key combination that forces AutoSave in RoboForm is used by Firefox to save page. So in Firefox use Alt+Shift+Click to force RoboForm AutoSave.
RoboForm2Go + Adapter
RoboForm2Go can attach to Firefox browser even if Adapter has not been previously installed into the browser. We recommend to uninstall XPI-based Adapters from all your new Mozilla-based browsers and use only installation from the RoboForm installer.
Adapter Tab in RoboForm Options
We added Adapter tab to RoboForm -> Options dialog. This tab shows all installed Firefox adapters. It allows to install and uninstall Firefox adapters. It also controls whether RoboForm can attach to Firefox if Adapter is not installed.
Portable Firefox + RoboForm2Go
Portable Firefox can be used from any portable drive without installing it on a computer.
- RoboForm2Go now integrates with Portable Firefox
- RoboForm2Go attaches toolbar to the bottom of the browser window
Size RoboForm Toolbar Using Toolbar Palette
RoboForm toolbar can occupy less than the whole line, if you use Toolbar Palette. Right-click Firefox File menu bar and select Customize. Scroll down the list to see RoboForm toolbar. Drag this RoboForm toolbar item to any Firefox toolbar. Click Done and RoboForm toolbar will occupy the designated space. Then close the native RoboForm toolbar, as you will not need it anymore.
