Any guesses which of these extensions is breaking Save Password function?

Unread post by carpet » 2022-10-14, 15:20

Does anyone know or can make an educated guess which of these extensions is breaking the Save Passwords function? It's not due to the most recently added extension because I haven't added any recently i.e. password saving *was* working with this same group of extensions. It works in Safe Mode. I think it broke when I updated to the latest PM version, which would indicate the cause is an interaction of 31.3.0.1 and some extension, right? I know I could add the extensions one by one and hope I don't have test all 31,586,389 permutations of one or more of them. I'm just asking if any jump out as likely candidates.

You could do a binary search. Disable the top half of the extension list and see if the problem is there or in the other half.
Then divide the offending half by 2 and repeat. Until you pinpoint it.

This one looks like the guilty party to me:

Just activate them 1 by 1 until its stops working, that's 12 permutations, but the tool mentioned above might be able to do it automatically :)

13 if turning your computer on counts, at least according to andy

Session Manager looks like the most likely suspect. Just a guess but that is what you asked for. If it's something more generic like a variable name conflict it could be any of them. I have uBlock Origin and not seeing any issues with it.
