Hello,

My cookies.sqlite file keeps deleting itself after I start browsing, and after a restart, it replaces it with a new cookies.sqlite file. My actual cookies.sqlite file is 1536kb, and for some reason, that's the magical number that unfortunately is causing me issues or otherwise. Please help!

And no, it's not corrupt. Readable when I rename the cookies.sqlite.bak file to cookies.sqlite as well.
