I read an article recently about 'session hijacking' and decided that every time I quit Firefox, I wanted to delete cookies & clear site data as well as browsing history.

However I wanted to know if it's possible to do that as well as all open tabs to be persist & be reopened through the quit and restart cycles (albeit logged out if it's website where I was logged in) but I can't get it to work as there appears to be a contradiction in all these options.

FF 159.0 macOS 10.15.8 Catalina (yes, ancient os I know) using the extension Tree Style Tab

I've been adding exceptions for some websites Privacy and security > Browsing data > Manage exceptions & History > Customise history > Choose what you want Firefox to remember > Advanced settings > Manage exceptions.

Home and startup > Startup > Open previous windows and tabs is checked but must be overridden by the other options.

Any advice on what settings will achieve what I want or even if it's possible? TIA

The place to designate the default save folder for bookmarks has disappeared. It used to be in settings. If it is no longer in settings is there somewhere in about:config to select default save folder for bookmarks?

There is an entry: browser.bookmarks.defaultLocation However it is some nonsensical coded entry: 9OZ32sF7u5y7 I do not know if it can be replaced with a folder name.
