Cookies folder

Glaucus · 1 Jan 2009 at 10:59

How on earth do I open the cookies folder. It just says permission denied Vista HP x64.

C:\Users\*****\Cookies

And my username has all permissions apart from special permissions.

I assume this is where firefox saves cookies? or does it default to a different location?

I forget, but is there a secret admin on Vista? (Don't have a Vista PC with me at the moment).

On my Vista Ultimate x64, it is:

C:\Users\<your username>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files

That begs the question how do you turn of file hidding?

Organise > Folder and Search Options (or something like that)

Firefox stores them in cookies.sqlite in your profile.

Where would images be found? trying to find knips signature.

Can't seem to find where this would be stored, or any pictures for that matter?

The path should be given in about:cache.

...For normal Cookies in Vista just type shell:cookies in the run dialog box. Some on view there and more when you click in the 'low' folder.
