User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:102.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/102.0
Steps to reproduce:
- Install Firefox 102.0 (64-bit) deb on Ubuntu 21.10 with all the latest updates.
- Enable "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" in settings.
- Add a cookie removal exception.
- Go to that website for it to set a cookie.
- Restart the browser with Ctrl+Q.
- Observe that it's there.
- Restart the browser with the
killall firefoxcommand. - Observe the issue.
Actual results:
The browser restored the opened tabs, but reset the cookies. It seems like since v102, the option started saving cookies when quitting, rather than removing them the next session. This is a regression because now a user has to re-login to all online accounts after each crash, power issue, or anything that can terminate the process.
Expected results:
The browser should have restored all cookies and resumed the session as usual.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Core::Networking: Cookies' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

This is a bug we fixed in Firefox 102.0.1 (see https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/102.0.1/releasenotes/). The snap package is 102.0.1, if you are using a deb package, I would suggest making sure it is up to date and reach out to the maintainers of this package if it isn't (mozilla doesn't make deb packages).
