Why is "Delete cookies and Site Data when Firefox is closed" checked and grayed out for me?

Everytime I open the FF browser I have to relog into everything, I didn't change any settings either, it just started doing this....

Unsure if this is correct category... Years ago when Firefox was in it's infancy - Firefox settings used to allow much more power/control over cookies & how you deleted them. You could actually display & select individually ones you wanted to delete. Now Firefox has it's own Interface 'utility' and only allows you to delete 'groups' of cookies based on their App name. I was looking for the location / name of the dataset which is used to store cookies - so I could delete them more finely. Or is this in some sort of special format which is ONLY accessible thru Settings. I see MANY Cookie add-ons, mostly dealing with auto-responding to cookie prompts. Actually as of this writing - I am trying one of these.

Periodically I open Firefox and all my cookies have been deleted. I go into settings to find "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" has been checked (NOT BY ME!) again. This is very annoying as I then have to log into all my websites and go through 2FA. This is annoying to the point that I am posting on this site for help. Next step is find a new browser that doesn't screw up my work-flow randomly for no reason.

Starting today, if I use google search in Firefox it ALWAYS says i am robot and I have to Recaptcha puzzles. I have done everything with my computer, cleared cache/history, rebooted router/chose "No Proxy" for Internet access/ and searched for viruses/malware etc. Using latest version of Firefox 138.0.1 I am also already logged into my Google account. Dont have this issue if I use google with other browsers such as Edge or Chrome. on a Dell PC using Windows 10.

I dont want to switch browsers but dont know how long I can put up with this. Wouldn't be surprised if Google did this on purpose to entice Firefox users to switch to Chrome.

Please HELP

Здравствуйте, у меня возникла проблема: пользуюсь браузером с компьютера, в какой то момент , каждый раз при закрытии окна все аккаунты на всех сайтах разлогиниваются. Приходится каждый раз везде снова авторизоваться. В чем может быть проблема? Где то капался в настройках, разрешал сохранение cookies но это так и не помогло, может быть я просто не все места нашёл и не везде передвинул бегунки.... Вроде в некоторых браузерах бывает такая настройка, специальная. Если она есть в фаер фоксе - скажите, пожалуйста, как её отключить? Если её нет - подскажите какие ещё могут быть варианты?

Пожалуйста дайте ответ с конкретными путями действий , или со скриншотами

When I put my laptop to sleep, websites I am logged into are often logged out when I return. Note that I don't close Firefox. The tabs generally reopen but require login again. Windows 11, Firefox 137.0.1

For example, I put my laptop to sleep for lunch. When I returned, tabs were there, but I was logged out of gmail, Discord, and a website I was logged into.

This seems to happen more frequently recently, but not every time, as far as I know. But this is a relatively new problem, possibly related to a new laptop. Occasionally I get a message that there is trouble restoring my session.

Is there a way to make the URL high lighting of the domain more obvious? I find that most people can barely see the highlighting and I'd like to make it obvious (bolder and red, or highlighted in yellow, for instance.)

Can this be done via userchrome.css?

Thanks,

Thane

On a previous install, this was a non issue. I recently had to reinstall windows entirely, and went to download Firefox first thing, but have been having an issue where even though every setting to delete cookies is off, I have the "enhanced tracking protection" set to custom, with everything ticked off, there are no extensions, no anything to seemingly cause the issue. I even signed out of my Mozilla account just to see if it was a sync issue. It still occurs. Firefox has been keeping me signed into literally everything, except specifically Google services. YouTube, Gmail, photos, everything. Any fix?

The image I uploaded is all I am getting. I even got on line one on one with my McAfee and they got on my computer. I need help guys. Is not just browse, I am also having issues accessing the website I know my account has been compromise. All I did different is add 2 adds on that were recommended by Mozilla and I removed them but it looks like the damage was already done.
