No cookie names are displayed when I press the 'Show Cookies' button anymore, which stops me from manually deleting cookies selectively.
When I open the Cookies window by pressing the 'Show Cookies' button in Options|Privacy the sub-window displays no Cookie names just a series of arrows as if for different sub-directories. This has been so for several months yet I have changed no cookie settings and have the 'Accept Cookies from sites' and 'Accept third-party cookies' boxes ticked. This means I cannot manually control/delete cookies.
Chosen solution
Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
- Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Instructions in the second link took me through the possible solutions thanks and it came down to a problem with the localstore.rdf rather than any hardware acceleration, themes or extensions. All resolved now - many thanks.
