Hello
Cookies : my setup =
- I accept all cookies
- Every cookie should be deleted when I close Firefox + I have got 20-30 exceptions
It does NOT work, all cookies are still there !?!?!
Did I something wrong ?!
By the way :
- The new design of Options sucks !
- I've had I don't know how many updates since the beginning of 2018 and Firefox does NOT work like before, it's a shame ! And not only the cookies, there are other metters ! Next step = Chrome !?!

Re: Cookies
What method are you using to clear cookies when you close Firefox? For example:alanke wrote: Cookies : my setup =
- I accept all cookies
- Every cookie should be deleted when I close Firefox + I have got 20-30 exceptions
It does NOT work, all cookies are still there !?!?!
Did I something wrong ?!
(1) Set the default lifetime to session only
"Keep until: Firefox is closed"
This honors exceptions.
(2) Set Firefox to clear history when it closes
This does not honor exceptions. If Cookies is selected in the Settings box, they should all be flushed.
