How to protect select cookies from deletion?

I understand how to delete all cookies/History and I understand how to delete individual cookies. But how do I protect some cookies (from my bank, eBay, etc.) when I wish to delete hundreds of others? It takes too long to individually delete the unwanted ones while being careful to not delete the desired ones.

You can manage the permissions for the domain in the current tab by going to Page Info > Permissions. You can access Page Info via the right-click context menu on a web page and via the Tools menu.

  • Tools > Page Info > Permissions

You can inspect and manage the permissions for all domains on the about:permissions page via the location bar.

Hi,

Please try this: Tools (Alt + T) > Options > Privacy > Exceptions..., type in the address like mybank.com, ebay.com etc. and Allow. Click Close > Settings (on the same tab) and uncheck Site Preferences, if selected.

Thanks.

- Jeez, this was only noticeable- and still not obvious- when selecting "custom history." FF's Help files could be a lot clearer.

- I did as you said and I thought protecting some cookies would protect the usernames in the login fields of those sites, but that did not happen. This is the main reason I wanted to do this. Again, protect the usernames, not the passwords.

Maybe it's because of this- "Close > Settings (on the same tab) and uncheck Site Preferences, if selected. " I saw Close at the bottom of the Exceptions tab, but nowhere did I see Settings and Site Pref.

Really sorry for that, my mistake. I've corrected the link.

To see the Settings button, you have to choose Use custom settings for history beside Firefox will: in the Privacy tab.

To stay logged into a site even after closing Firefox, you have to uncheck Active Logins in Settings, not ideal if more than one person uses the system.

I do not wish to remain logged in to a site after closing FF. I thought there was a way to protect usernames- not passwords- when deleting cookies and history.

To protect just the usernames you would have to uncheck Form & Search History in the Settings while remembering it in the Privacy tab and also disable Remember passwords for sites in Tools (Alt + T) > Options > Security.

Thanks! BTW, my "Jeez" comment was about FF's Help files, not you.
