firefox momentarily shows cookie preference, then the dialog box disappears.

If I enter trouble shoot mode then the popup box appears long enough for me to accept cookies, but given the momentary popup sometimes is so fast you miss it, I have no idea if that is the cause of some sites not working.

I usually watch YouTube with Enhanced Tracking Protection turned on, Private Browsing turned on, and cookies turned on without logging in, but I have never had any problems. I can no longer open YouTube pages at all unless cookies are turned on. I will ask Google to improve this, but could Mozilla also investigate the cause? Thank you in advance.

Any possible way to reverse Manage Exceptions in the Cookies and Site Data?

Here's my question.

I am well versed with, and frequently use the Manage Data tool in Cookies and Site Data to remove bothersome cookies, particularly from sites like news sites that will throw you a few "bones" of articles without mandating a subscription before requiring one to continue to use view the site.

I took a hard look at the Manage Exceptions option next to the check box that will Delete Cookies and Site Data when Firefox is closed, but requires that I'd have to input a hundred sites that I want to retain the cookies for manually, in order to avoid potentially loosing any credentials or site data.

Which brings me to my question, kind of the reverse of the steps you use to both delete cookies and Manage Exceptions. Rather than going one by one with Manual entry of each site that you want to retain site data and cookies for, why not generate/provide a list, populated the way the Manage Data function works. And then, let the user just select the exceptions to auto cookie deletion when you close Firefox?

I had this issue a few months ago but it then seemed to resolve itself. Now it's back.

I use passkey on a few sites like Google, Youtube, Hubspot... every time I attempt to use passkey on such sites Firefox locks up and I can't select anything on the page, a different tab. It just completely locks up and I have to restart it.

I always deselect cookies.

I don't have this issue on Safari so it is the only way I have to deal with this issue.

About once a week Firefox will 'reset' its self. I will open it up and it will have logged me out and ask to go through the setup process (almost like its just reinstalled). Webpages wont open. Only way to fix it is to open troubleshoot mode and follow the refresh option. Cant find any reason its doing this.

Bonjour, depuis plusieurs semaines, je reçois une demande d'acceptation des cookies pour chaque site que j'ouvre. La demande se répète tous les jours même si je visite n'importe quel site plusieurs fois dans la journée. Pouvez vous remédiez à cela. C'est la 1ère fois que je suis confronté à cette anomalie depuis que j'utilise FIREFOX. Merci d'avance -- Cordialement H ROBIN

Hi,

If i understand correctly, firefox has total cookie protection enabled by default i.e. cookies are not shared among sites. I can see partition key is being set for the cookies which helps in maintaining cookie jars.

I am just curious to know if these cookie jars exist for firefox extensions also? For example, from a specific add-on if a certain cookie is set for demo.com then i dont see any partition key associated with it. Does this violate total cookie protection? And is this a bug or a special feature that firefox extensions can utilize?

I look at porn on my Android phone. I use Private Browsing to do so. Why are my Private Browsing addresses appearing as Firefox Suggest results that appear outside of Private Browsing as well? And why does Pornhub show me a personalized home page when I'm using Private Browsing? None of these pages are in my browser history because I've only accessed them via Private Browsing. But these "features" sort of defeat the purpose of it don't you think?

I've just switched from Chrome to Firefox and never had this issue with Chrome.

I can't find a place to control third party cookies in the Security section. I used to be able to donate on my church's website but now it doesn't work. I tried doing it with Microsoft Edge and it worked fine. I hate to erase all my history and cookies because it takes away log-in info on my regular websites. Any ideas? Thanks for your help Terri
