Safari crashes when I click the "Manage Website Data" button under Privacy I have been trying to resolve this issue for the past several months. Safari crashes when I open certain website and then, when I try to follow the directions provided in this article -- -- Safari crashes! I see that this was an issue back in 2022, and see others are having the same issue. Apple Support, at least via chat, is useless. They just keep sending me links to articles that then crash Safari.

Safari crashes when pop-up prompts appear in Private Browsing Hello, I have recently been encountering an issue in Safari, specifically in Private Browsing where any pop-up prompts, such as Google log in prompts, although it's not limited to only that, causes Safari to abruptly quit. This issue occurs after clearing cache, cookies, trying in safe mode, and reinstalling macOS, so I don't think it's an issue with the device to the best of my knowledge although I may be wrong. Please let me know if anyone also has this issue or any ideas on how to solve it. Thanks.

Safari (18.3),unable to not load website data After update MacOs Ventura 13.7.3 (22H417) and Safari Version 18.3 (18620.2.4.111.8, 18620) I cannot control my Website Data: the privacy panel shows "Loading Website Data ..." for hours but never ends the process. I have tried clearing the cache, restarting Safari but this seems to be a Problem. My update for 13.7.3 an Safari 18.3 is a few day old but this problem limitate my behaviour for security on Safari. I need help if there is a workaround or the Apple guys have to solve this problem. ciao

Found a solution! Went to Settings -> Advanced ->. I checked "Block all cookies". Then I unchecked "Block all cookies". Now I can go back to Settings -> Privacy -> "Manage Website Data..." and it works!
