I have used FireFox & online banking at the same bank (BECU) for years, mostly fine. Recently I get many errors, including messages that "online banking is not available" when I try to do specific things (e.g. pay my CC). I can fix the problems myself, but I have to logout, close the tab, and use the Manage Data to clear all data for this site. I have to do this almost every time I actually make any banking transactions. I allow tracking for this website, which seemed necessary, but still have to clear data every time. Can Firefox automagically clear data only for a specific site? Firefox 74.0 64-bit on Windows 10 kept up to date.

See if this helps: Type about:preferences#privacy<enter> in the address bar. The button next to History, select Use Custom Settings.

Turn on Remember My Browsing And Download History At the bottom of the page, turn on Clear History When Firefox Closes. At the far right, press the Settings button. Turn on ONLY Cache and Form And Search History leaving the others off.
