How do you clear this data ?

If you only clear cookies and site data then you keep the logins saved in Lockwise, but you are logged out because you lose the session ID cookies.

If you use "Forget About This Site" then you will lose the logins as well unless you use a Primary Password and aren't logged in (i.e. opening about:logins gives a PP prompt).


Detail like websites remembering you and log you in automatically is stored in cookies, so make sure you aren't clearing important cookies.

You can use these steps to make a website recognize and remember you.

  • create a cookie allow exception with the proper protocol (https:// or http://) to make a website remember you

You can check that you aren't clearing important cookies.

  • clearing "Site Preferences" clears exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, and software installation and exceptions for passwords and other website specific data
