Cookies are being deleted despite website being in Favorites

That’s odd, cookie shouldn’t touch any data if it’s not configured to remove any thing.

I’ll take a look at my code, just to make sure there’s nothing being wrongly removed

SweetP

ok,
I made some adjustments to my removal code - so if something was slipping through before, it shouldn't be now.
could you try the latest Beta build and let me know if you still see the same issue:

you can also update to the Beta build from the Updates tab in Cookie Settings (if you are running the version from my store)

I just tried with 7.0.7.6 and I'm still getting logged out of Whatsapp! Don't know if it's meaningful, but when I visited the "Unwanted data" tab in Cookie, the first 3 checkboxes had blue minuses, so I changed them to ticks.

I just tried with Safari and I'm not experiencing the problem with Safari, so it really is tied to Arc (which is Chromium based). Furthermore, whatsapp.com under Safari shows 169 cookies whilst there's just one cookie under Arc!

Do you have a timer configured in Cookie?
If so you will need to also disable that

No timers.

Hmm I’m stumped

I did a whole new series of tests with version beta 7.0.7.6. I first unchecked all the "Unwanted data" and all the "Removal options". I restarted Arc and remained logged in. Then I checked the removal option "On Browser quit". I restarted Arc and remained logged in (this was different to what I experienced before!). Then I checked "Tracking cookies" under "Unwanted data" and restarted Arc. I remained logged in. Then I checked "Cache" and restarted Arc. I remained logged in. Then I checked "Non-favorites" and restarted Arc. I was logged out. This is where I noticed that a cookie "leveldb" had been added, but not under whatsapp.com. I checked this cookie to add it to my favorites and restarted Arc. I remained logged in.

Thanks for your help, Russell.

Just FYI, please note that whatsapp.com for Safari has over a hundred IndexedDB.sqlite3 entries:

Not sure that this is intended!

O that’s great!
