Cookie keeps asking for folder permissions

gmason

When starting, it keeps requesting a permission interminably. Seems to be for Library/Preferences. I keep allowing, it keeps popping up.

@gmason Try clicking the Remove all Sandbox permissions button on the Advanced tab in Preferences.

this should be fixed in the latest beta, and will make it into v6.1.2

I note that I ran into this loop, adding Containers along with Library, in versions 6.3.5 and 6.3.6. Thankfully, I found this post.
But the solution was more than simply 'Remove all Sandbox permissions'. I also had to:

Enable Global permissions. This covered all my browsers.
Click "Enable" for EACH browser down my list.
Approve of the resulting (all too familiar) requests for permissions: Library and Containers. Just once!
Cookie is now sane again.
