:fleur_de_lis: Want to keep certificate information even when :ballot_box_with_check:"Delete ALL cookies and ALL site data when Firefox is :x:ed"?

:gear: There is an easy way you can do this:

  1. Go to your Certificate Watch Storage page by clicking its icon.
  2. Copy the URL.
  3. Click "Manage Exceptions..." under Privacy and Security
  4. Paste the Certificate Watch storage page into Address of Website (moz-extension://25b9c171-c26f-4a6c-8de1-8fd56be0f588/cw_storage.html)
  5. Click Allow
  6. You should see your Certificate Watch storage exception "moz-extension://25b9c171-c26f-4a6c-8de1-8fd56be0f588" next to "Allow" and it will persist through browser restarts.

This will let you clear other pesky web storage pages, but keep your certificate storage!
