<p>"Allow" versus "Allow for Session" relates to the lifespan of a cookie -- whether Firefox honors a future expiration date (persistent cookie) or not (session-only cookie). It is not related to how or where that cookie can be accessed by the site. That is covered by the "cross-site" or "third party" cookie settings under Tracking Protection settings.

</p>User interface gurus believe it's necessary to reduce clutter on the right-click context menus, and 2021-04-22T15:00:22-07:00jscher2000https://support.mozilla.org/ta/questions/1333709#answer-1407912<p>User interface gurus believe it's necessary to reduce clutter on the right-click context menus, and "less used" items are being removed. I am helpless to stop that.
</p><p>That said, you can still call up the Page Info dialog in Firefox 88+ using two of the three earlier methods:
</p>
<ul><li> Ctrl+i
</li><li> (menu bar) Tools &gt; Page Info<br><em>On Windows, tap the Alt key or F10 to activate the menu bar temporarily</em>
</li></ul>

<p>In a different thread, you wrote:

<p>Well, in fact, I've been using that for years.
</p><p>The setting used to be called "Keep until: I close Firefox" and now it's labeled "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed".
</p><p>With that turned on, Firefox ignores the cookie lifetime the site requests, which can be over a year, and instead sets all cookies to expire when you close Firefox (end of your session). If there's a site that annoys you with extra two-factor authentication after each Firefox restart, you can give them an Allow exception to work around it. There also are some sites that malfunction with this setting, such as Outlook mail, so you can create an Allow exception for those, too.
