Hi Chris,
Thank you very much though I found your post a bit hard to follow! But I
think I got there in the end.
So far everything's gone well since I deleted the cookies.

Hi Gillian
You might want to read this post, which I have raised on the Legacy
Facebook page.

I am just back to my master PC, the other was on my laptop, and still
running at v339. This works with my looking at my fathers hints with
no problem. Looked at my cousins hints, with a hint searched record
that was quite old, probably from 2019. That gets this error the first
time, looking for it from the index
{"statusCode":400,"error":"Bad Request","message":"Invalid cookie
header"}
Switched to the individual view and tried from there, and got the
Loading Hints... display. Looking at the http request, they are both
the same except that the erroring one does not have the last field for
_k=

Looked at the hint record and it was old. Checked the Hints processing
monitor and it showed a few waiting requests. Waited for these to
clear. The hints flag disappeared from her record and then reappeared
a couple of minutes later, with a current last searched date. This one
does work, but note that the first field, which I assume is the
individual, has changed.
https://www.findmypast.com/hints-ui/#/list/4fd010f1-807d-44c1-9ff6-f02d0e590dce?partnerId=.............&_k=dqpuzw
I assume that the partnerid identifies either me or you.
So, I think that there is a problem with old Hints records which have
not been researched recently and might contain out of date information.

Hi Brian,
I've now tried many Hints following your advice, that is, deleted all
cookies for fmp, and so far everything's going well. Thank you very
very much.

Not any kind of expert but that message looks like a problem with
the web browser you are using. It is reporting an error with the
findmypast web site or with the string legacy is sending to the
site. Since it is reporting a bad cookie I would first try deleting
all the cookies in your browser pertaining to findmypast.com. If
that does not solve the problem try clearing your internet cache in
your Browser it may be trying to re-use a bad link from your history.

Can some kind person please explain to me why I nearly always get
this message when I try to look at a Hint:
Sometimes, but only very rarely, I do manage to get through to
findmypast to see what the hint is.
Findmypast is the only site I have marked for hints.'
