I am locked permanently out of my own account on an important website because the website no longer recognizes my device after I had to delete recent cookies. Recovery methods are outdated and I forgot my own security questions to the website, etc.. I have a computer for about 3 years ago I...

Maybe yes, maybe no. The cookie I need might still work. So are you guys saying if I just got an old enough version of Firefox, it could be compatible? Again, I don't know how to get a version from 2015, not sure how it works with Windows 11 either.

The cookies.sqlite file is only 2 MB, do you think there is anything in it, could it possibly be empty? Is there a way to check? Not sure how I install a version of Firefox that old, I don't think those old versions from 2015 are available.

Thanks for the thoughts, but I really do have a good reason for needing an old cookie for a certain website, and then I can delete them. The cookies.sqlite file I'm trying to load is about 2 MB, I'm not sure if it still works, please help me if you can.

Hey everyone, I have my old cookies.sqlite file from a 2015 version of Mozilla Firefox that I want to import into my latest version of Firefox. According to google, I should be able to do this, even though it is very old. However, when I dump it into the profiles folder, none of these cookies...

I posted my specs below, hope that helps. I turned off hardware acceleration in Chrome, didn't help. When I say it freezes I mean that I can move the mouse but I can't interact with anything on the browser screen. Also, even as I type a message like this one the words appear on the screen 5...

I am not sure where to post this, maybe you can recommend another forum. I have a 350Mbps high speed fiber optic connection, but when I go to certain websites it is as if my connection is terrible, it can take 10 -20 seconds to click on different things, the computer locks up. I have tested...

Where is Update Previews? Is that within Windows? The instructions on how to disable Update Previews when I googled it didn't seem accurate, there is no "Updates and Security", and within "Windows Insider" there is no option to disable previews, so I'm lost. Strangely, I stopped what it was...

Wow, just realized it was downloading something in the Microsoft App Store. How do I stop it from doing this automatically?

The process "Delivery Optimization" seems to be taking up my entire bandwidth. Under Windows Update Advanced Options I unchecked "Allow downloads from other devices", and I just have Windows Update set to optional right now to give me the choice of whether to update... but still Delivery...

I uninstalled, then reinstalled. Yes, I can go to Chrome/User, there are many folders in there, now what? I don't think I have a restore point that will get my cookies back. I do have some restore points that just relate to windows updates.

I know my password, but the website thinks I've never used this computer device before and is trying to verify me with an email address that no longer exists. It doesn't appear to have saved anything from the original chrome install, even though all I did was uninstall and delete the DEFAULT...

My Chrome browser was repeatedly crashing for some unknown reason and the only way I found to fix it was to completely reinstall it. After doing this, every single website I visit suddenly doesn't recognize my computer and wants to go through a lengthy verification process. This is mostly...

I am forced to upload when I sync to a cloud during a game for instance. Is there a way to stop it from disconnecting during latency?

I have been getting disconnected when playing certain games, even though my ADSL Ethernet Dial Up connection is fast enough to play online games such as Madden 24 and Tekken 8 with no latency or lag. I did some troubleshooting and discovered that the cause is actually when I upload, not...
