Now this is interesting - USBclean has no problem removing the dot-underscore files on the same USB drives/SD cards using my other Mac which is running macOS Sequoia 15.1 (not the 15.2 public beta). So maybe it's worth you testing USBclean against the betas for 15.2?

Russell - I did everything you suggested and it's still not working.

@mwculbreath can you try this debug build and send me the CookieLog.txt file:
https://send.tresorit.com/a#6HlMfQO4CAvey6NJgZbCPw

Download and unzip the file, then open the Cookie app contained inside it will ask for access to the desktop - allow this than try to Allow access to some browser paths. any paths, it doesn't matter which A file wil be saved to your desktop: CookieLog.txt

@Logonaut thats great!
it was a really strange bug that I couldn't personally reproduce. I had to debug with a user who had the issue by sending multiple beta builds and getting feedback.

many thanks to Dirk for his help

ok I am going to try that and will get back to you. Thanks for the hint

thats great!
thanks for the followup

If you disable History removal in Cookie, that should fix this issue

Hmm,
Some kind of system corruption causing issues somewhere. Thanks for the update

@yvan24 If you are using the version from my Store, can you give the latest beta version a try, to see if it fixes the issue.

you can update from the Updates tab in Cookie Settings.
make sure to check the option Check for Beta Releases. before checking for updates

@SweetP said in Cookie 7.4.3 minor issues:

@PeBr100 do you have more than 1 copy of Cookie on your computer?

@SweetP No, just the one copy.

Appreciate that Russell, I'll give a generic rule like you outlined above a try.

Thanks very much!

v4.0.8 should fix the issue with login Rules not activating. Its available my store now, and also waiting to be reviewed by Apple for the App Store

@wayne do you have any profiles setup in Safari?
also, which version of Safari are you using?

OK, so what you are saying is that even though I can still see those cookies and databases and such, they have actually been removed from Safari and a restart f Safari will reflect this. OK, I will give it a try to confirm. Thanks very much!

-Wayne

Can confirm that it's addressed this problem. Thank you!
