scottls Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Win 7 (32), FireFox 3.6.3, A-squared 4.5 paid anti-malware, latest CCleaner. Noticed Since the latest CC upgrade!- every time I run CC, it deletes ALL FireFox cookies! Analyze doesn't show it flagging Any FF cookies!? I have all my favorite web site login cookies to keep/saved, and no problem with IE8! Wouldn't be so bad with IE8, as Id just restore cookies from backups!- There seems to be no way to Export/Import "Only" FF cookies! Grrr! Q?- FF cookies is checked in Applications, doesn't CC honor the "cookies to keep" list for FF? Win 7 (x86), ESET Smart Security v8, Zemana Anti-Logger free and no other active anti-malware.Free on-demand- Old/fast MBAM v1.75 (No Pro/Context!), MBAM Anti-Rootkit BETA, Emsisoft Emergency Kit, herdProtect.i5-2500 CPU @ 3.67GHz, WD VelociRaptor sata6 10k rpm/64mb Cache HD (WOW!).

Q?- FF cookies is checked in Applications, doesn't CC honor the "cookies to keep" list for FF? I don't understand... Why not just leave the Cookies section in Firefox unchecked??? I love computer maintenance tasks. Some of my favorite programs: Wordpad -basic word processing Notepad - temporary clipboard and basic scripting module Windows Media Player 12- video, music and online radio player Windows Media Center - live TV, local FM radio CCleaner- handy computer maintenance tool If something fails to work after using the registry cleaner, use SYSTEM RESTORE.

In effect, he was trying to get CCleaner to do a "Delete all cookies EXCEPT these certain ones here!" Correct me if I am wrong, but I think that is what he was trying to do...

In effect, he was trying to get CCleaner to do a "Delete all cookies EXCEPT these certain ones here!" Correct me if I am wrong, but I think that is what he was trying to do... That is exactly what I was trying to do, and CC is no longer deleting my FF cookies? It may have been that I accidentally still had Show Hidden files selected? BTW!- I finally figured out how to backup FF cookies! To Backup FF cookies- 1. In MyComputer, Tools, Folder Options, View- Show Hidden files, and untick "Hide Extensions for known file types". 2. Go to- C:/users/(name)/appdata/roaming/mozilla/firefox/profiles/(name).default 3. copy/paste cookies.sqlite into your backup folder 4. Go back, and "Don't show hidden files"/reboot ~~~~~~~~~~~ To Restore cookies 1. copy/paste your #3 cookies backup, into #2... 2.
