      @HFTobeason it should be here:

      ~/Library/Cookies/Cookies.binarycookies
      

      The ~ means it is in you user folder, which you can access like so:

            @LEoM I restarted with no luck. Stuck in an infinite loop trying to "Enable" for Safari.

              I had this problem after initially upgrading to Cookie6 but it was resolved.

              BUT NOW, after allowing AppStore to upgrade me to 6.0.12, I am back in the loop of having to grant access.
              System level is macOS 10.15.3
              Cookie does have full disk access. I have quit Cookie, removed disk access, restarted system. Doesn't help.
              I have had to disable Cookie to get ANY work done.

                @StuFried does the cookie file exist?

                ~/Library/Cookies/Cookies.binarycookies

                  @SweetP Yes it does. But it has a creation date of today. Unless it is destroyed at browser quit I would have expected it to have an older creation date

                      @SweetP Hey @SweetP,
                      Wanted to update that I stopped the app, removed the permissions, removed application (using AppCleaner), restarted my computer, downloaded the app from the App Store.
                      Now I can not even enable Safari (Firefox and Chrome are OK), and it STILL does not recognize that it has "Full Disk Access" granted

                        @StuFried are you running Safari in private browsing mode?

                            Cookie checks for the existence of Safari‘s Cookie file. Does it exist on your computer:
                            ~/Library/Cookies/Cookies.binaryCookies

                              @SweetP Hello Russel, many thanks, great, that did the trick! There was a Cookies.binaryCookies file, but it had a corrupt ending. I deleted all ookies.binaryCookies versions and all is working! Thanks for the quick help. Kind regards, A

                                  @SweetP no, I am not running in private browsing mode.

                                  Something eventually shook loose and I am back running as I want with 3 browsers enabled for automatic removal.

                                    I could fix this after migrating to a new MacBook Pro with Catalina only by a complete removal of Cookie and a completely new installation. It was driving me nuts once Cookie was opened at boot - I had to shut it down with Activity Monitor.

                                      I forgot to note that removing the Cookies.binaryCookies file alone did not help, but after deleting Cookie (via AppCleaner) and reinstalling it was OK.
