## Review summary

Users largely rate Forget Button as a strong, easy-to-use Firefox cleaner that covers many data types (even described as clearing 13 areas) and plays nicely with Cookie Quick Manager to protect kept cookies. However, multiple reviews report reliability problems on certain Firefox versions and instances of it not functioning. Another common concern is that some options are missing or not available as claimed, and it does not clear searches in the main search bar. Overall, strong cleaning capability tempered by compatibility and feature-gap caveats.

### Pros

- Cleans a broad range of Firefox data (described as clearing 13 areas) and is easy to use.
- Easy to use and user-friendly.
- Works well with Cookie Quick Manager to protect cookies you want to keep.
- Overall, highly useful and positively reviewed as a Firefox cleaner.

### Cons

- Reliability and compatibility issues: it can fail or stop working on certain Firefox versions (e.g., Firefox 140.4 ESR).
- Missing features compared to claims: options like IndexedDB, Application Cache, Stored Files, and Local Storage are not available.
- Does not clear searches in the main search bar (limited data-clearing for some search interfaces).
