Cookies being deleted each night

[Mickyfin]

Anyone else running Yosemite experiencing their cookies getting deleted automatically each night, or every 24 hours?

I have checked all my preferences, and nothing suggests its a user preference, I fear its something more than this.

I manually clean my website data twice a month, and run MacKeeper once a month, so know that after I carry out this maintenance I do need to log back into my various sites, and I always tick that little box to keep me signed into these site I frequent.


Normally I keep signed into these sites until my next manual clean up, but what is happening right now, is each and every day, I need to log into all of my frequented websites, and its driving me crazy.

I am running an iMac 27" with Yosemite if that helps?

No, this has not happened to be with any of the versions of OS X from Leopard, Snow Leopard, Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks and now Yosemite..

Manually cleaning stuff is fine, but I would avoid Mackeeper like the plague..

Which browser are you using?

 

[Mickyfin]

MacKeeper is more than fine, the negative hype is unwarranted.

Safari.

Sorry Mickyfin…but we have lots & lots of user experiences here to prove MacKeeper is junk!!!

In almost all instances:

- MacKeeper installed = lots of problems
- Uninstall MacKeeper = problems go away

Moral of this story…don't install MacKeeper in the first place!

I'm not saying that MacKeeper is necessarily the source of the problem(s) you are having currently. It's just a great idea to not have it installed.

I understand, thanks for the advice, but, I have been using MacKeeper over a year without any problems whatsoever, its only recently I have come across the cookie issue, and I cannot for the life of me figure out why, or what is deleting my cookies each night all of a sudden.

Dear oh dear. Take the suggested tip. Is crapware.

Well its your machine, do what you will with what is installed on there..

All I can say about Yosemite and Safari is that there is nothing in there to delete cookies routinely.
