I always run in private browsing mode and cookies as well as third party cookies are disabled. Yet when I click on View Cookies in the privacy tab a list of about 100 cookies appears.

I have to click twice on Remove all cookies to clear the list. Then I close the list and click again on View Cookies and all the 100 cookies are back.

So the removal has not worked.

I would appreciate help.

You may have installed an extension like TACO (Abine) or Do Not Track Plus that maintains a set of OPT-OUT cookies if you can't remove some cookies permanently. In that case you need to uninstall the extension to remove those opt-out cookies.

Thanks for your quick help. Disabling the "do not track add-on" eliminated the cookies.

I noted that another add-on "WOT" also creates cookies ignoring the disabling of cookies.
