CCleaner 5.37.6309 . firefox 57.0.3.
In CCleaner I look at options>cookies, and see a long list of them. Some for sites that haven't been to in over a year. Firefox has always been set to not accept 3rd party cookies, and except for allowed cookies, keep for session only. "Show cookies" shows only 5, the ones on allowed list.
CCleaner can't seem to delete these cookies. they appear to delete, but when refreshing the list, they are back. Firefox icon appears on bottom of window for each cookie indicating that they from firefox.
In CCleaner multimedia setting, adobe flash is checked, so that should take care of flash cookies. Besides, until v 57, when Firefox trashed most of my addons, I had an addon to not permit flash cookies.
In CCleaner, for all browsers, 'cookies' is checked.
I have gone into profiles and made sure all were deleted except 'default' and the currently used profile.
Where are these cookies stored? Why are they there at all? Why won't they delete?
