Hi all

Over the last couple of weeks I'm noticing, across many sites, a particular 'Set Cookie Settings' screen which I just can't get rid of!

I can't  'Continue with Recommended Cookies'  or 'Manage Settings'. 

Clicking on Vendor List or Privacy Policy does nothing either!

I just can't get rid of the Cookie Settings screen at all, and that takes up the bottom half of the screen.

Basically, I can't use those sites, some of which I've been using for years.

Please ......................... any ideas?

 

I've attached a screen shot of the offending message!

 

Many thanks in advance,

Slime

Hello Slime,

 

What browser is that you're using?

 

Even after rebooting the computer that page persists?

 

If I had something like that I would try resetting the browser.

That is indeed odd, i get those cookie pages too but just navigate through them, I'll see if I can find anything else.  Wondering what does not get reset when resetting Firefox, just thinking out loud here.

Hi,

I think there's light at the end of the tunnel.

I'll update when I have more information.

Hopefully later on this evening, but possibly tomorrow. :thumbsup:

All sorted and resolved.

Turns out it was a Firefox Syncing issue .................................. not that I have any idea what that means!

But thanks anyway, guys.  :thumbsup:
