Google not remembering SafeSearch filters

[jasong1968]

Search Settings > SafeSearch filters > slider to no filtering

Save, get message saying "prefs are saved"; return to google

Return to Search Settings, and the slider is set to moderate

Change slider to no filtering

Save, get message saying "prefs are saved"; return to google

Return to Search Settings, and the slider is set to moderate

Anyone else seeing this, and how to fix this?

Thanks!

Enable cookies, and perhaps enable persistent storage, in your browser... cookies are how Google 'remembers' your preferences...

 

[jasong1968]

Cookies ARE enabled. Why would you think they arent?

What is persistent storage? Never heard of it...this was working up until a few days ago - never dealt with persistent storage before.

Cookies ARE enabled. Why would you think they arent?

Because they obviously AREN'T working given the behaviour you describe...

Something sounds like it's gone AWOL inside your browser...

Hmmm, looks like you're not the only one:

Cookies ARE enabled. If I have not turned them off, they have to still be on right? Here is s shot of my options:

Reviver - can you read those threads? I get a :

An error occurred while communicating with the server. Reload

On both.

It might be worthwhile to test it in another browser, since that would narrow the problem down.

What about any security software or cleanup utilities you might be running? Lot's of them like to clean out your cookies stash as a matter of course.

Same thing is happening in FFox 901

What about any security software or cleanup utilities you might be running?.

None.

 

[jasong1968]

Any ideas here?

This is working fine in Vista IE7.

As of yesterday, this is now working.

Google must have done something to fix this.
