Exclude signons.txt + cookies.txt on Firefox

Post by Unknown_User_414 » Thu Aug 10, 2006 9:34 pm

Ello,

I was wondering how i could exclude only singons.txt + cookies.txt in the profile folder of Firefox:
C:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profile\a3yov22x.default

The folder, a3yov22x.default, sounds pretty random to me, so if i exclude
C:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profile\ then the whole a3yov22x.default folder will be excluded, right?.
But i just want to exclude the two textfiles within the a3yov22x.default folder, so i can just place 1 cookie and signon which will makes sign in a forum much easier cause it was memorized(yeah im lazy :p).


sandboxie.ini:

OpenFilePath=C:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profile\a3yov22x.default\signons.txt

OpenFilePath=C:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profile\a3yov22x.default\cookies.txt

But if folder a3yov22x.default changed or renamed by firefox, OpenFilePath doesn't work anymore,...i guess, or the whole folder will be excluded, something i preferly don't want.

lol such a story. i just want to exclude cookies and signons on the firefox browser permanently.
Could not find it anywhere on the forum (at least for now).

So what you want is to be able to specify -

Code: Select all

OpenFilePath=C:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profile\*\signons.txt
But wildcards are not supported at this time.

You can fake it, though. You could have a small program or script that adjusts Sandboxie.ini according to the actual profile folder name.

I don't have much experience with Firefox myself, but hopefully someone else may be able to answer your question.

The firefox profile directory is made up of random characters, but it stays permanent for as long as you keep that profile. It will not get renamed.

Saving passwords in Firefox

signons.txt in Firefox is encrypted. You also need to use key3.db in the same folder.
