Clear cookies and site data greyed out
For the last three days or so I have been haivng problems with loggin in to sites. I no longer log in automatically to my many of the sites I use, particularly those set for my home page such as IMDB.com, ebay, web.whatsapp.com etc. Everytime I restart firefox I have to log in again. This started I think wit hthe latest update 155.0.1 (my current version) installed 5th sept 26 or 155.0 installed 3 sept 26
It doesn't seem to be reading the cookies that exist. I have it configure so all cookies are cleared on exit except those in the exception list, which are those for my home page plus about 30 others I log into. There is definitely cookie data there for these sites. I hve tried everythinig but this clearly seems to be a bug. at the moment I am using Opera since the necessity to keep loggin in to every site every time is just too much.

Ok thanks, I will try this setting and report back
Edit: This worked! Thanks so much for the prompt solution. This really was impossible to live with and has really saved my bacon. Not sure how this option got set, not even sure what private browsing mode is... But again, thanks.

Your image doesn't show the exception part that you mention.
I am not aware that you can select certain cookies to keep if you clear cookies when closing Fx
If you click the manage exceptions option then it wil lshow the expections list. This has always been there for 3rd party cookies and has always worked without issue... till a few days ago. Chrome stopped offering this option which is the reason I changed to Firefox about 3 or so years ago..
I suppose what I'm really asking is if there isn't a fix, it possible to roll back an update becaue then I could simply do this then disable updates till the bug has been fixed

For the latter part, see support.mozilla.org/questions/1599157 where shutdown exception list is separated to, from the partitioning exceptions before.
But more importantly, "greyed out" sounds like you switched to "never remember history", which is a permanently–private browsing mode — and that will not be saving any session data.

I described the difference recently in support.mozilla.org/questions/1602049 for a similar question (where the "always private" also did forget more than what was expected), if you want the longer read;)
Glad it was just that simple in this case.
yes read the link makes perfect sense so I'm a litle wiser.
Thanks again.
