The storage size has exceeded its quota error message

Hi there,

My fireshot suddenly stopped capturing pages in Firefox a few days ago so I deleted it and downloaded the latest version. Now it works but I keep getting an error message every time I do a screenshot saying "storage size has exceeded its quota" There is nothing to delete as there is nothing in the drop down box. How do I get rid of this error message?

Firefox version 151.0.1
Fireshot version v.2.1.4.15

It seems like the indexedDB is corrupt.

The first thing I recommend is to remove the extension, then install it again.

I this doesn't help, please try the following:

- Open FireShot Options page.
- Press F12 to open the Developer Tools.Storage Tab:
- Click the Storage tab at the top.
- Delete Data: Click IndexedDB on the left. Locate FireShotDB, right-cilck it and select Delete FireShot DB.
- Restart Firefox.

I found Fireshot options but then when Im in there I press F12 and it doesnt seem to do anything. So I cant find the Developer Tools/Storage tab to continue trying to fix issue

Are you able to show me a screen shot so I can see where this is?

Thanks

Hi again,

I found out where to go. F12 doesnt work for me for some reason but when I right clicked once Im in Fireshot Options it says Inspect so I went into that and the Developer Tools came up. I found the Storage tab and then scrolled down to  IndexedDB but all thats in there is something that says moz/extension://and many numbers and it wont let me delete that and in the box to the right it says no data present for select host

So, just to confirm, removing the extension completely and installing it from scratch doesn't not solve this problem?

I tried uninstalling it by right clicking on Fireshot and selecting remove extension and it was gone and then I re installed it from your link on here with current version but still getting that issue with the storage quota.

Whats weird is last year I had this same issue and uninstalling it and re installing worked but not this time.
