Like the title suggests, Firefox won't remember my Weibo.com login state. Every couple of days, I have to log in again. This does not happen with other social media sites, i.e. Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, etc. Only Weibo is having this problem, even though I allowed cookies from weibo.com.

What's more, Chrome does not have this issue with weibo.com.

Programatically setting cookies using javascript doesn't work on expired cookies

Hello, I will try to explain as best as I can.

In our web app, for authentication, we manually set our cookies (document.cookie = cookie) after receiving the tokens from the login request. We work with 2 cookies, 1 for the access and 1 to refresh the access one if it expires. The refresh cookie has a longer time to expire.

When we login on a fresh session with no cookies at all in the storage tab in the dev tools, all is fine. I actually tested this by setting a random cookie and then using the debugger to add a breakpoint on the very next line of code and then typing document.cookie in the console and it is present.

The problem appears when trying to login after the cookies expired. They are still present in the storage tab in the dev tools. Somehow, manually setting the cookies again doesn't actually set the cookies or it takes some time and our app is stuck on the login page because it doesn't pass our checks that it actually has the access cookie. Using the same test described above, re-setting a cookie that expired and using the debugger again to add a breakpoint on the very next line of code and then typing document.cookie in the console does not show the cookie.

This issue does not reproduce on other browsers and it started with version 116.0.3.

For a more step by step to reproduce the issue: 1. Use document.cookie = cookie with a expiry time of 20 seconds 2. Wait for 20 seconds to pass 3. Set the same cookie again 4. Use the debugger to set a breakpoint after setting the cookie 5. Type document.cookie in the console whilst in the breakpoint pause 6. The cookie doesn't show in the document.cookie call

So the whole issue started when I couldn't share a video on my community tab because it kept giving me the error message "enable google.com for cookies". I click accept a few times it didn't work. Then I went to cookies- extensions and enabled both youtube and google in it, didn't work. I deleted my cookies and data and tried again. I had to sign up to all my google accounts. Still it didn't fix the issue I kept getting the same error. Then I went to the enhanced cookies settings went to customs and chose the option "cookies from unvisited sites" This fixed the community tab issue. I shared my video and then went back to settings and set the standard enhanced tracking protection. I got signed off my gmail and google accounts I signed up again and closed the browser.

When I came back my google and gmails are signed out again but my accounts still signed in my youtube for some reason. I keep getting signed off on google but not youtube. I don't have the "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" option enabled. IT IS DISABLED.

HOW DO IT FIX IT? I don't want to keep signing in every time also I don't wish to reinstall firefox. PLEASE HELP

Every time I close firefox the cookies file in my profile folder "cookies.sqlite" makes a backup of itself "cookies.sqlite.bak" so when I open firefox again I start out fresh unless I change name of the file back to what it supposed to be then I could launch firefox back with the old cookies with no visible issues.

So, how do I make it so the firefox doesn't automatically make a backup of my old cookies and replace it a new file?

I have already checked the cookies are enabled and set to never be deleted. Other websites I use stay signed in, this only happens for google/youtube once every few days. I never had this problem in other browsers aswell so I doubt it's an account problem. I am using a couple of extensions, adguard and ublock origin, but the issue was still there when I disabled them.

I am having problems clearing Facebook cookies and data storage. I have cleared the cache numerous times and always FB is at the top of the list with 0 cookies but 17,179,869,184GB Data Storage. I delete that as well and it comes back. I have run my Smartscan and optimized. This showed up recently and it makes Firefox very, very slow. What are some other options to try

Hello. I've been having issues with downloading any type of file from Google Drive on Firefox. The issues I'm experiencing directly match what is mentioned in [support article] but this user uses Windows. 'I'm getting this problem on Arch Linux instead. Outside of Linux, I do not experience any issues with downloads from Google Drive.

So far, I've tried all the methods; From downloading from a private window, to disabling cookies -- I've even completely disabled any protection settings and add-ons such as uBlock Origin/DDG, but also re-installing Firefox. In the latter it kept my data, so it might not have been a fresh re-install.

What could be the cause of this problem? This issue does not seem to happen on other browsers. While I can use that as a workaround, I'd like to know the cause to prevent it from happening in the future.

Thanks!
