Hello,
I am having problems with some sites and the error seems to indicate that it is related to cookies.
In Google Drive, when I am trying to download any file, it is getting stuck in some kind of loop and at the end, it is showing this:
The page isn’t redirecting properly
An error occurred during a connection to drive.google.com.
This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.
Apart from this, when I am trying to log into my Riot account in Valorant's website, it is ending up showing this:
Expected redirect cookie to exist

I have tried following:
It didn't help. Also, it started after I reinstalled Windows 11. I have yet to setup it, so I have not made any changes.
Also, everything is working fine in other browsers.

Hello,
I recently deleted pwnedpasswords.com from my cookies, as well as blocked this website; however, it keeps reappearing in my list of cookies.
I've never even visited this site (that I'm aware of), and it's a bit concerning to me.
In spite of clearing ALL my cookies (and blocking this website), it keeps appearing in my list!
Please advise :)

I watch videos on dropout.tv which uses the Vimeo SDK as their player for the videos. After switching to Firefox, the video progress has consistently started from where I left off on Chrome. The site doesn't remember where I ended the video when I watch it on Firefox. I assume this has to do with the cookies, but I've manually added "dropout.tv" to the list of exceptions in Firefox settings so that that site is always allowed to store cookies.
Returning briefly to Chrome, the player immediately tracked my progress again, so the issue is definitely related to Firefox somehow.

For the past few days, Firefox has been freezing up. By playing around with it, I've found that it's still functioning, but it ceases to update visually. I'm not having the same issues with any other program on my PC, I don't see the icon to update Firefox, and I've restarted my PC a few times along the way.
When this happens, it's not just website contents that freeze, but Firefox's UI as well. Hovering a tab doesn't highlight it. Clicking the hamburger doesn't appear to open the menu. Etc...
If I have a video playing when this happens, I will continue to hear it, but the frame the video is on stays in place.
If I click on another open tab, it will still show me the tab it visually froze on, but if I end Firefox with Windows Task Manager & reopen it, the session saves the tab switch, so it's still taking mouse inputs. I've been able to do similar with keyboard inputs by clicking on the address bar and entering a new URL. I don't see anything as I type it, but after using Task Manager to close and reopen Firefox, the site I entered is there.
I can switch between open Firefox windows when this happens without issue, even on the same monitor, and if I pull up something else in front of Firefox and then switch to Firefox it will still display what was last visible in that Firefox window while the bug is occurring.
I have tried disabling add-ons, and actually found that disabling some of them made it happen *more* frequently, not less. Privacy Badger, Auto Tab Discard, & Ad Nauseum specifically. Switching from Ad Nauseum to AdBlock Plus or uBlock Origin neither increases nor decreases the frequency. My other add-ons, like Duplicate Tabs Closer, haven't had any effects on frequency that I can see. With all of my Add-ons disabled, Task Manager shows double the number of Firefox processes.
I tried to clear my history, but I can only select my last 1 hour of history, as clicking on the dropdown box to select another duration will cause the problem to occur & I can't see the other options in the box to select a longer option. The dropdown to select a topic for this question has the same issue.
These are some actions that risk causing the bug to start, but aren't 100% reproducible, and the list is not exhaustive:
I have not seen the bug occur at any time that I was not actively providing some input to the Firefox program.

I recently switched over to using an SSD, and I am trying to do everything I can to prevent unnecessary writing to that drive. I've already found instructions for moving the location of Firefox's Cache files to my secondary HDD, but I haven't been able to do the same for Cookies; they're still being stored on my C: drive, in the AppData folder.
Is it possible to change the path that Firefox uses to store Cookies? If it is possible, how?

On a new website or after clearing the cache and cookies and upon opening a page I will often get a pop-up with cookie usage choices, e.g. "strictly necessary", etc. However, the pop-up disappears before I have a chance to click on any choice or even finish reading the first line. I'm not sure what settings I need to change to allow me to make a choice on the pop-up. Please advise. Thanks.

Even though I have removed the cookies for Facebook, the Manage Cookies screen shows a HUGE storage space. FF v99.0 on Mac
from preferences page: Your stored cookies, site data, and cache are currently using 17,179,869,184 GB of disk space.
almost all are Facebook storage. I'm feeling a little reluctant to delete all site data. If I clear all cookies and site data will that fix the issue? will the issue re-occur?

I'd like to be able to prevent a specific address from appearing in the Firefox address bar (as a suggestion) when I start to type in the address bar. I tried deleting the cookies associated with a particular address, but the address still appears as a suggestion in the address bar when I start typing its name. Thanks a lot for any help.
