cookies.txt
) in a unix-format text file (eg LF instead of CRLF for newlines).
- In Firefox 3.0 and up: a binary file representing SQLite database on which you can make queries (cookies.sqlite).
The file is located under your profile folder:
C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxxx.default
where xxxx
is some random-appearing alphanumeric string.
You might want to install the Firefox plugin View Cookies to better manage them.
