How can I stop Firefox from automatic granting sites cross-site cookie permissions (see screenshot)? The problem is that the cross-site cookie(s) granted for a site more often than not is completely unrelated to that site. This problem is very frustrating.

I have tried changing several settings in Tracking Protection but nothing has stopped Firefox from auto-granting these permissions. I have for example turned off "Fix major site issues (recommended)" but it has not changed this behavior.

Thankful for any help.

I have a new mac air and I had to set up a new Firefox/Mozzila account. Since then, I keep getting a Google sign in request. I have a Google email for websites that I don't really use, so am effectively a Google customer, but I prefer to not have this pop up every time I go to a website that has a sign in. How to I get rid of these pop-ups? Thank you, Fi

Whenever I sign in to my VA account, I check the box to "Remember this browser" (as attached), but it never works. VA IT told me it was an issue with the browser (i.e., Firefox). This might have just been their way of making me go away quietly. (Blowing me off!) But I thought I'd check with you anyway. Can you help? Thanks

Apparently, cookies are not allowed for audio sonograms on eBird,org (Cornell) and I have tried removing the shield and setting cookies to the general setting. The Header has an invalid 250N value. Can you please help me enable these files on any given eBird or Cornell Labs page? I find your instructions very confusing about which settings to use. I have removed all ad blockers from the site and the problem does not originate through my security app (Vipre). These were suggestions from your forum users. Please only post specific instructions to fix my problem. .Why is this feature blocked in the first place? Thank you.

Can someone please explain what this IAB TCF banner is all about, is it Firefox or ?? It leaves a icon like a painter pallet on the bottom right corner of the screen when closed. It says it collect cookies, has a bunch of boxes to check. I clicked reject all, but it didn't go away. What am I supposed to do with it if it is legit. I'm 80 years old and so so tired. I did a spybot virus scan and nothing turned up. appreciate any help that will ease my weary worried mind.

macOS 26.5.1 Firefox MAC: 151.0.4 (aarch64)

reCAPTCHA keeps re-appearing espcially after I just cleared recent history in firefox mac And I tried a few things but so far no luck.

Does anyone have any idea how to prevent reCAPTCHA ?

Thank you.

When clicking on the shield for some sites the clear cookies and site data is grayed out. Any one know why this is happening?

I can still do this for an individual site by going through the Setttings->Privacy and security->Manage browsing data

Over the last week or so my personal websites (such as Banking, Amazon, Facebook, etc.) suddenly started asking for (text or email) verification to sign in successfully. This only happens after a restart. (Sometimes I run a 'restart to untangle some glitch - but some Windows updates do a restart automatically.) And I have to go through all the verification stuff again! VERY ANNOYING!! Some MS tech this morning had me uncheck Cookies and other data in the Privacy and security category. But that didn't help. I just did a restart and AGAIN my bank(s) websites asked for a texted CODE. So did Facebook, and Amazon. Once I complete the CODE requirement it stays good until the next restart. And when I went to change that "cookies" option was nowhere to be found (to change it back) In SETTINGS>PRIVACY & SECURITY - NOW shows just the green button and box that says "STANDARD". I don't want or need this annoying added verification on every site that I use daily. I don't know exactly how or when this started...(maybe about a week ago).

I have a site i use frequently I change passwods and then i still cannot log in. they tell me it is because i have disabled their cookies. i use this site and when i chage passwords and till cannot log in iam FRUSTRATED

I am using 147 ESR and when I go to permissions and block all cookies for the site plex.tv the cookies are not blocked. If I go to the URL field and select the lock, it shows "clear cookies and site data" which means the cookies have being accepted.

Why are the cookies accepted from the site when I have set cookies "blocked"

Every time I access my bank's website using Firefox I get a pop-up telling me to "manage online experience". After I "manage" it, it appears on every page I go to on the bank's site (ie. savings account or chequing account etc.) I have white listed several of the pages in Privacy and Security but this has no effect. Obviously I am missing something. Can anyone give me guidance? Thx.

How can I block Google and other sites from knowing everything I do on Foxfire? Every time I visit anything that has membership Google is there asking to sign me in. I thought Foxfire was supposed to be somewhat private. Thanks!, Mark

google is saying cookies are disabled when using FF to login. This was working Privacy is set to STANDARD and I went into settings and removed google.com as well to no avail.

How do I fix this?

Thanks leon

The most recent Firefox update (145.0) lacks the convenience of easily editing the cookie collection that tells websites about me. The feature I'm referring to was under settings - privacy and security - and then something about cookies. It allowed me to show what sites had collected cookies on me recently and to erase any private data they had collected.

I hope this was an oversight or the feature has simply been moved to another location. If not, I'd really like to roll back the latest update and pause any further updates until the old functionality is restored to the new updates.

Can anybody help me?

I am so confused, i have issue with staying loged in on youtube. I am clearly loged in but when i try to comment it tells me to log in. Also if I put a playlist i log out between tracks. I am not sure if it is firefox or youtube issue, but i am trying to investigate the issue as it is ongoing for a while at this point. Please see attached image.
