For FF, you find your profile like this:
C:\Documents and Settings\<Windows user name>\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile folder>

In this profile folder, you should find the cookies.txt as Damar mentioned. You can copy-paste it to another folder as backup, and then copy it back to this folder if necessary.


Note, that the Application Data folder is a hidden folder. To show hidden folders, open Windows Explorer and choose "Tools → Folder Options → View (tab) → Show hidden files and folders".

(If you still have problems finding it, then just make a system search for cookies.txt, make sure that you choose the option that it also searches hidden files.)

All I can think of for restoring cookies without using a software would be to make a system restore, and set the status of your system back to an earlier point. But with that new things that you have created would be lost.
And I suspect you wouldn't want to do a system restore anyway if not really necessary.

Just btw, this is a free software to create profile backup for Mozilla products (although I haven't tried it, so I can't tell more about it): http://mozbackup.jasnapaka.com/

@Jack, even if there is such a free program, I prefer to don't make use of it, because with deleting my temp. internet files, I also deleted a whole lot of other things. Plus downloading the program, restore all the files and delete them all again beside the cookie would probably take just as much time as going through all the levels again. I was still working on chapter 1, level 37 or something. So restarting the game wouldn't be that bad. I just hoped there was a simple way to reverse the change of the cookie. But thank you for your reply anyway.

@Damar, I am afraid I can't follow you. I really don't know where I can find my profile directory, unless you mean the cookie folder under privacy. But so far I know I can't replace or copy anything to it.
I am using IE aswell FF, but I used FF when I played oddpawn

If you are using ie you use file menu import export then follow the wizard if it is Firefox they are found in cookies.txt in your profile directory of firefox and you can just replace it with your saved cookies...

There are programs that can recover permanently deleted files. I don't know of any that are free though.

I would like to know how I can back up a cookie and if it's possible, also how to restore a cookie. For the whole story see here:

I feel quite stupid I don't know how to do this myself.

You need to set this option.

Choose "Warn me when closing multiple tabs"

when i open up a new tab Ctrl-R and then i close the IE.. it closes all the open tabs, but really i just wanted the one tab closed so i wonder if there's an option that it reminds you have more tabs open

That's odd. I am not sure what the problem could be. Even more strange is that this thread has a redirect to page 20 for you, because there isn't a page 20.

I too wonder if anyone else experience this same problems.

Edit: I logged out and then I experienced the same. I think I know what the cause is, but if it is I cannot do a thing about it right now. I am sorry.

But I will let the other mods know about this.

Thanks for helping!

At the moment certain threads are not going to be available. We are hoping we can clear up the problem shortly, but it may take a little time to get it sorted out. They are not actually gone, they just can't be seen at the moment. Once we get the problem fixed they should all go back to the way they were.

Edit: btw I know the game you are talking about. I'll take a look and see if I can find it.

[RBS]

I posted a search request in the Help Finding a Game thread and now I cannot find the thread to check if anyone responded.

Edit: that was about 2-3 hours ago.

[Adventure]

Can you post the urls of the threads you experience this with?

[ShiningStar]

not sure if anyone else is having this problem but where the page numbers are like this one it says pages "19 20 >" I can't get to page 20 I click on it and it keeps me on page 19, tried to close the screen and still having the same problem and it seems to only be on some threads, not doing it on all the ones i'm going to

No, it isn't an active member. But there have been some issues lately, that's why we need to look into it.
As I said I'm not sure if it's only the non-active members are not shown, or if there are certain days when also active members aren't displayed. We need to do some checking.
