Thru Firefox, I use Tineye to find related photos - I use it all the time, it's been great - I always use a VPN and have never had problems until now (as of yesterday). Now it won't search, a verify you're human window comes up, and I have to keep clicking squares, which I do - but then it says to allow cookies and start over. Well I don't want to allow cookies (I assume it's one of the options I have thru Firefox to block cookies), and I can't find where to allow cookies even if I did (I went to Firefox preferences etc) and I don't want to disable my VPN. Maybe I should mention that I just added or started a Mozilla account, as I have had immense trouble with my aol emails, and am trying to move everything over to a gmail account. My sign in to Firefox was the aol email, and I had to (try, I thought I did it) add another account, which I think I did successfully. So it was right after that, that all this started. Help please! Thank you!

I want to enable cookies for outlook and google, the rest I dont want.
I have attempted to look at the cookie's url for outlook and add that to the exception list, but outlook still harasses me with its annoying 2fa
How do I find the actual address to put in the exceptions list to stop this issue?

Hi,
We have an application where we do not want to share the session cookies between tabs. Is this possible? If above answer is yes, next we would like to filter out some cookies by name that should not be shared across tabs. Meaning, we want some cookies that can be shared across tabs and some should not be shared.
Thanks in advance

Hi there; I like Firefox and I always recommend it to others, please keep it the way it was, simply good privacy and easy to use and work with. It used to was possible to clear cookies for a specific website but now it's gone! and I can't figure out how can I delete/clear cookies for a specific website! I think even if there is a way to do this, you've made it so complicated! it was easy, just click on setting icon next to website address in address bar and clear cookies! once I tried this and it took me to other pages and ended up to clearing all my cookies in entire Firefox! and this made difficulties for me to find all my username and passwords and enter them one by one...
Please make it simple as before. Thanks.

Hello
I'm trying to sign into a Microsoft 365 email account but can't get beyond a screen saying "To use this site, you need to change your browser settings to enable DOM storage or cookies."
I've enabled DOM storage and cookies but no difference. I've cleared cookies and no help. I'm running Firefox 115.0.2 and Linux Mint.
Is part of the problem that I hate Microsoft and they know it?
Thanks
I keep getting signed out of my blog on blogger. Will turning on Cookies in Firefox help that and how do I do it? Thank you!

Hello,
I am having problems with some sites and the error seems to indicate that it is related to cookies.
In Google Drive, when I am trying to download any file, it is getting stuck in some kind of loop and at the end, it is showing this:
The page isn’t redirecting properly
An error occurred during a connection to drive.google.com.
This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.
Apart from this, when I am trying to log into my Riot account in Valorant's website, it is ending up showing this:
Expected redirect cookie to exist

I have tried following:
It didn't help. Also, it started after I reinstalled Windows 11. I have yet to setup it, so I have not made any changes.
Also, everything is working fine in other browsers.

I recently switched over to using an SSD, and I am trying to do everything I can to prevent unnecessary writing to that drive. I've already found instructions for moving the location of Firefox's Cache files to my secondary HDD, but I haven't been able to do the same for Cookies; they're still being stored on my C: drive, in the AppData folder.
Is it possible to change the path that Firefox uses to store Cookies? If it is possible, how?

Despite have used Firefox for many years, I am still not completely clear on why there are two separate areas for cookie settings, and how everything works together. In Cookies and Site Data: I check Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed. In Manage Exceptions, the listed domains I choose will not be deleted, but all other domains will. Correct? In History: I uncheck Always use private browsing mode, and I check Clear History when Firefox closes. In the Clear Recent History box, I uncheck Cookies and Site Settings. Question: Will be above choices in both areas get me where I want to be, which is retaining cookies for chosen protected sites, while deleting cookies for all others whenever Firefox is closed? If this is where a lot of people want to be, why are these choices presented in such a complicated way? If relevant, under Enhanced Tracking Protection I choose Custom, and leave all the boxes checked. The sites I choose to use seem to perform well with this option. Is this Security & Privacy area in Settings in need of reworking for ease and clarity?

I use Pinterest quite a bit and somehow a great deal of pins have disappeared.
This happened once before when I was using Chrome, and I was able to go digging into my cached files and find the cached versions of the thumbnails of my Pins, so I could somewhat recreate them based on that.
I'm not sure how to go about that with Firefox. Would any information (specifically images) be stored from a previous version of a webpage?
Thank you!

Hi Mozilla community,
The Developer Tools -> Storage -> Cookies pane shows cookies currently being stored by Firefox.
If I close my browser, these cookies are automatically deleted. However, if I follow the steps on [1], the cookies are still there, and don't get deleted. *Why?*
Thanks in advance!
Steps to reproduce:
- Start a new Firefox session - Open Developer Tools -> Storage -> Cookies and see that the list is empty - Go to youtube.com and click Accept All on the cookies popup - Developer Tools -> Storage -> Cookies now shows a cookie from YouTube, as per the attached screenshot - Go to Settings->Privacy & Security->Cookies and Site Data -> Clear Data -> Clear - Go back to Developer Tools -> Storage -> Cookies and click on the refresh icon - The YouTube cookie is still there - However either of the following actions will correctly delete this cookie:
1) closing firefox (with Always Use Private Browsing Mode enabled) 2) manually deleting the cookie from the list in Developer Tools -> Storage -> Cookies

The last update made it look like all cookies were gone, except there are still there but the dates are wrong. 90%+ of them have their "last used" date set to "in 4,137 years" (see screenshot). Websites ask to accept cookies every time Firefox is restarted, which makes them basically useless. I have to use phone authentication each time I want to check gmail on my desktop because the site acts as if it had never seen me before.
Firefox's safe mode is the same. I ran the antivirus on the whole system and it found nothing. Windows clock works fine. Other Firefox functions seem to behave like normal. Other browsers are unaffected.
I filed a bug report and I'm thinking about trying the last extended support version to see if it still happens. I backed up the whole profile and I would like to keep all my data, including the cookies.
So, what can I do to try and get this fixed fast, and possibly keep my cookies, too? Thank you very much!

Your browser did something unexpected. Please try again. If the error continues, try disabling all browser extensions.
Is there any browser issue because I am not using any extensions or ad blockers?

Hello. Can someone please explain why Facebook asks for username/password every single time Firefox is restarted? I do not use cookie-cleaning extensions. They also send a 'login attempt' email and phone notification every time.
Tried with and without Facebook Container. Not using other Container/multi-account related extensions. My settings:
Standard Tracking Protection (allow/block exceptions: none) "Do not track" signal: Always Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed: disabled (no exceptions) History - Firefox will: Remember History
