Cookie "Exceptions" button missing from Options
In Options I have always checked "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed", but kept a list of sites to retain cookies for. The list is still working but the "Exceptions" button to review or modify it has gone missing from the Options page since I last used it! Everything else looks perfectly normal. What could be wrong?

Re: Cookie "Exceptions" button missing from Options
you must be missing something as in not seeing it.
here is what it looks like in firefox's "settings" on my computer:
___________________________________________________
i notice that you are using a very old, outdated, unsupported version of firefox. my advice would be to uninstall the version of firefox that you have installed and then to install the latest current version of firefox which currently is FF 101.0.1. also, to keep the tweaking of the new installation to a minimum.

Does the same thing happen if you launch the program in Mozilla Troubleshooting mode?

One little detail : the buttons in the Privacy window are pushed very far to the right, so if your window isn't wide enough, you won't see them.

You can possibly zoom out the page (Ctrl + -) to see if that makes those buttons visible

Re: Cookie "Exceptions" button missing from Options
...well, it turns out I did this to myself in userContent. I recently added a simple rule to avoid cookie notices on websites ([id*="cookie"]), and this "Manage Exceptions" button is named #cookieExceptions, and apparently the Options page is considered "content". I'll get that fixed.
Should have disabled my user css last night before posting, it's the first thing I'd normally do. Thanks though.

Maybe use
for that one, so its effects are limited to the web.
Code: Select all
@-moz-document url-prefix("http"){
/* RULES */
}
