проблема с тем, что мои куки файлы или кэш файлы внезапным образом после того как я закрыл браузер пропали. я попробовал откатить систему с помощью точки восстановления, но ничего не помогло и все равно ничего не восстановилось. чувствую себя грустно от того, что как будто я копил вкладки нужные мне очень долго и сейчас так просто их потерял. если нужно, чтобы я еще что то написал, прошу напишите мне в ответном сообщении, потому что я не знаю какая информация нужна Google Translation: The problem is that my cookies or cache files suddenly disappeared after I closed the browser. I tried rolling back the system using a restore point, but nothing helped and still nothing recovered. I feel sad that it is as if I have been accumulating the tabs I need for a very long time and now I just lost them. If you need me to write something else, please write to me in a reply message, because I do not know what information is needed

It happened again. My firefox must have removed all of my cookies because I had to sign back into all of my regular websites--Youtube, Yahoo email, Facebook, Twitter, etc. This has happened once before. Firefox deleted all the sign in cookies? Not sure what exactly is happening; I only know that I had to sign back into all my regular websites. This seems to be happening every few months now.

Hello,

in Firefox 154, it looks like there are 2 places if you want to create exceptions to clearing data when exiting.

1. In about:preferences#privacy under "Browsing data": "Exceptions - cookies and site data"

2. and in about:preferences#history: "Exceptions - clear history on shutdown"

The 1st place allows more than just an exception to clearing data on exit, it allows negative exceptions too (i.e. "block" and "session-only"), whereas the 2nd place does not have those, and is only an exception to clearing data on exit.

having both of those dialogues is pretty confusing and seems duplicative.

what are the under the hood differences between them, and which one should be preferred for exceptions to clearing data on exit?

Hello, I wanted to ask about this new site permission.

I previously used the "set cookies" permission for specific sites to keep their data after closing Firefox (Dev Edition), but now we have this "keep site data when closing" permission, can I just rely on this new permission instead? I should probably test it, but I wanted to ask first :p

Was I using the "set cookies" permission incorrectly this whole time?!

Thanks, +-

I would like firefox to be linked with face book, It's one of my daily sites, but since I made FireFox my default browser I have to sign in to face book evrytime I open it. They require cookies so change it please.

I saw a very confident by a 'support volunteer' that the interface contains controls to delete traces.

Show me in the in interface where these files can be deleted:

C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\0NB2KS6j.Profile 1\cache2\entries

C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\0NB2KS6j.Profile 1\safebrowsing

Some very bold claims that I don't see backed up by anything having to do with reality.

Hello,

It seems that Firefox has lost the ability to clear cookies on exit without also clearing history. This affects the current version, 153, but I started observing it a few versions back, maybe around 148.

In Settings -> Privacy and Security, if I select "Clear cookies and site data every time you close Firefox", this automatically enables "Clear history when Firefox closes". If I unselect the latter, the former also becomes unselected.

I would like to clear site cookies and data whenever I close Firefox, but not browsing history. I'm sure this used to be possible in the past. Is it an intended change that this is no longer possible, or is it a mistake?

Thank you.

you have to delete over 5 times to get history and cookies to clear. Selecting "everything" never removes everything :( Used to be the best for privacy now its seemingly deceptive..

Hi, your last update ( 153.0.3) broke my ability to stay signed into or go back to known web sites I have put in the “Exceptions – Cookies and Site Data”. I do clear all the Cookies and Data when I close the browser but now it looks like Cookies and Data is deleted in the “Exceptions – Cookies and Site Data” also. I would love to do a redo on this update and reload the old version. The browser also is showing my PC is Windows 10 and it has been on Windows 11 for 3 years now.

Since last week there is a cookie that I can not remove in the Manage cookies and website data panel. It is called about.ef2a7dd5-93bc-417f-a698-142... There is probably more but that is not shown in my view. How can I remove that?

Every time I select Gmail on Firefox page, it requires me to sign in with a code. I have selected 'Strict' for browser privacy and 'Clear history after closing Firefox'... plus a number of other settings. I then get a notice of someone signing into my account each time, as does the person who I use as a backup to my account. I'd like not to go through that each time I access my Gmail account.

Thanks for the help.
