Even if I register a Google domain as an exception, Google login information will be deleted

First, check "DeIete cookies and sitedata when Firefox is closed" from Privacy & Security in the settings.

After that, register the Google domain as an exception with "Manage Exceptions".

When I restart Firefox after logging in to Google once, the Google registration information disappears even though I registered the exception, and I have to log in again.

However, there are some sites where my login information will not disappear if I register as an exception.

How can I prevent my Google login information from disappearing even if I restart with the above settings?

Thank you.

I'm not seeing "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" checked in your attached screenshot ?

Did you add the top level https://google.com domain as an exception to include sub domains ?

Also make sure to remove the existing Google cookies to make Firefox apply the rules to newly created cookies ?

Even if I clear all the above conditions, the login information disappears when I restart.

After restarting Firefox, when I check the number and capacity of Google cookies in "Manage Data", it is less than before restarting.

Even if I register for "Manage Exceptions", some, but not all, cookies seem to be cleared.

Is there any good way?
