Hi all,

I was wondering whether anyone uses KeePassXC with the Firefox browser add-on on Zorin OS. I can’t get the browser add-on to recognize the app. I spent a better part of yesterday trying to figure out a solution but just can’t seem to get it to work. Any help?

    I’m using Librewolf (a Firefox fork) and have the same issue.

    Just check Firefox messaging folder exists in your home

     ls -l ~/.mozilla/native-messaging-hosts
    

    In my case, I needed to create a symlink to make it work with my browser

    ln -s ~/.mozilla/native-messaging-hosts ~/.librewolf/native-messaging-hosts
    

    Maybe you could apply a similar workaround. Hope this helps

      Usually this is the main reason and I had to do the same for librewolf. And if I am not mistaken if you are hardening FF you need to make sure you are not blocking native messaging capabilities, IIRC flatpaks might also have similar “issues”.
