Using Firefox 68.12.0ESR. I know 78 is available, I just haven't had the time to test it yet. I delete cookies when I exit Firefox. I want to keep some for sites that I trust, such as this site. I've added exceptions to Allow these trusted sites as documented on a thread somewhere else, but it doesn't work. All cookies are deleted.

Is it possible to keep cookies only for a select group of sites. eg. support.mozilla.com, tomshardware.com, mydigitallife.net, speedtest.net and so on.

Thank you.

Online shopping using WaterFox (example screenshot attached) at Walmart & other websites, preview webpages are not showing images. However using Microsoft Edge web browser the preview images load just fine. (example screenshot attached) I disabled all extensions in WaterFox but it made no difference

I did explore the "knowledge base" but could not find a fix for the problem, but would welcome any help

you could send my way. Also have a problem on some web pages that use a "chat" application. Clicking on the "chat" link does not activate the chat window. However, there again, chat window opens fine in MS Edge. Thanks!

I'm buying a new win 10 laptop soon. Is it possible to copy the the settings from a virtual windows 10 64 bit I just set up. It is easy to export the bookmarks as html but could i set up the desktop/add ons etc. I have used classic shell and winaero tweak to make it look like win 7. I don't like 10 and would be buying 7 if i could.

Could i copy the profile onto the laptop. I think the laptop is 64 bit, would it matter if it wasn't

This PC is win 7 64 bit desktop and i know the firefox 77.01 is out of date. I don't like the changes

I have followed microsoft directions for finding log files but directions don't seem to apply to my machine. Any suggestions? Below is the report from this morning log in on Firefox.

I work on computers without admin rights, and i can't install add-ons,

how to make a true portable Firefox without using registry at all

I really don't understand that a free software allows such a blocking, even if chrome doesn't pose any problem with add-ons.

is there a way to lanuch firefox with a option to not use registry or to redirect registry in file or in a not locked custom registry like

hkey_local_machine/software/policies/Mozilla_portable/Firefox

or something like that ?

I use a Win10 64 bit pc. I use Waterfox Classic 2022.02 which I think is like Firefox 68.0. I use this so I can still use the extensions that I need. Well up till the last update which I think was in February but not 100% for sure. I currently have no sound on Waterfox with Youtube,Twitch, or anything similar. Also sites like Roblox can't be logged out of. I tried emptying the cache & still no good.

when creating firefox account, i entered 0 as my age, because i saw no reason for ffox to ask for this private info. after that, firefox told me i am too young to have an account and there was no way to go back!

just another horrible act on ffox part that does not surprise me at all after seeing so many :(

if this happens to you, here is the solution: find the firefox cookies and delete them (see image)
