Please fill out the issue template, or at least share a screenshot. Does it show an error, or is it a notification about a successful data deletion?

dessant commented 2 years ago

The error is shown because your data is no longer being cleaned. Which version of Firefox are you using?

dessant commented 2 years ago

It means something has started causing an error during data deletion and the extension is warning you. Have you modified an option in about:config recently?

dessant commented 2 years ago

There must be an error with more details in the browser console, please open it with Ctrl+Shift+J and press the extension button to see the logged exception.

Your screenshot does not show the browser console.

It tools like you have discovered a browser bug, or the modifications you have made to Firefox broke the extension API. You could try testing the extension with a fresh Firefox profile that has not been customized, and possibly report the issue to Mozilla if the error persists.

I have tested the extension with the latest Firefox version, and I could not reproduce the issue.
