Is this for the active site only? It's a bit ambiguous. When i use it, is it just coincidental that i have to re-log into other sites, as well as Mozilla?

Is there a simple way to do this without adding an extension?

Unable to save cookies for specific websites

Hi. I tried to log in to my new bank website today and it's asking me, each and every time, to fill out the pass code it has sent to my email. I went in to settings on Firefox and added the website as an exception so that the cookies for that website aren't deleted and, lo and behold, when I try to log in, again the bank website is challenging it as a new device and sending me a one-time code! So, for some reason, it hasn't saved, or at least not registered, the fact that this should be a safe website where cookies are saved!

I'm trying to copy and paste the list of exceptions to show you but it's not allowing me to copy and paste them.

Can you please clarify how I can add these cookies so that the website doesn't see my desktop as a new computer each and every time I log in to my account on my desktop?

My manage exceptions list is now being cleared out and clearing out all the cookies and site data with it when I close my browser with the "Clear cookies and site data every time you close Firefox" checked off.

It should only be clearing out cookies and site data for everything outside of the allowed things in the managed list.

Issues with Firefox's website data settings

I think Firefox’s two separate settings for website data are somewhat confusing and redundant; “Custom History” under “History” involves and duplicates the functions of “Browsing Data,” and “Browsing Data”’s “Clear cookies and site data when Firefox closes” I want to simply achieve allowing cookies to be saved only for a few specific websites and clearing all other data on exit. Edge can turn off “allow sites to save and read cookie data” and directly add exceptions, and it also has only one option for choosing what data to clear on each close, which is more concise and clear enough. If possible, I hope the technical staff can make changes to this, preferably by referring to Edge’s conception for this part.

Hi, Both my wife and I have been using both Firefox for many, many years and only realised today that I did not have an account. I have two problems, both starting at the same time, (1) every time I use my computer (now both a desktop & a ASUS 17 laptop) my current tabs I don't have my original tabs which I rely on having when I have a project running, and (2) when I start my computer I have to go through the 'ticket the squares with bicycles in" to verify I'm human. If I close Firefox and very shortly open it again I don't get the check. For the first problem I've checked the Settings and they are as I have always had then to restart tabs that were present on shutdown. For the security check I've googled an explanation/fix but most times I get a suggestion to look at some setting which I can't find anywhere. Hopefully you can answer my problems. I synced with my iPhone 15, not too sure that I had any success as the prompts didn't line up with the displayed requests. My version of Firefox is 157.0 (64-bit) running on Windows 11 Version 25H2 (OS build 26.200.9457. I have updated to latest version Thank you, KenDiment
