Where Are Cookies-Exceptions Stored So That I Can Backup the File??

I restrict access to my computer by using "Accept cookies from sites" - "Exceptions".

Every time I reinstall FireFox, I have to manually add the sites one-by-one to this exceptions list.

If I knew what file these exceptions were stored in, I could backup the file and wouldn't have to re-create every time.

Thanks.

All permissions except the password exceptions are stored in permissions.sqlite in the Firefox Profile Folder

The file permissions.sqlite stores allow and block exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, and extensions (software) installation.

Thanks. I use an older software to backup my profile and it wasn't getting that particular file. I'm all set now.

Appreciate the help.
