  1. Edge (chrome) Cookies and site data


    In Google Chrome settings, Cookies and site data allows you to Clear cookies and site data when you quit Chrome.
    Below that, in the settings it has a section called Allow, where you can choose cookies you want to keep on close.
    This lets me delete all of the cookies on close except for the ones I want to keep, such as for this site for instance.

    I used to be able to do the same thing in chrome Edge.
    But it seems they have removed the Clear cookies and site data when you quit Edge option from the Site permissions/ Cookies and site data settings page.
    Instead they link you to the Privacy and services/ Clear browsing data on close page where you can choose to clear Cookies and other site data.
    But then it ignores the settings in Site permissions/ Cookies and site data to allow you to keep the cookies you want.

    I just want to be able to clear all the cookies and site data except for the ones I choose to keep when Edge closes like I used to.

    But now that doesn't seem to be possible to do any more. Am I missing something?

    peace
    wanna

    :)

  2. Edge tracking cookies

    I have had the same problem. All these tracking cookies slow down my machine. Edge has gotten to be the best except for this problem.

    I suggest going to Chrome, blocking third party cookies (that's what tracking cookies are) and using SuperAntiApyware (it is the best out there) to scan and remove. Chrome also has a way to add sites to the blocking list if any get through. I do this and
    my machine is faster and tracking free!!

    When Microsoft gets this capability, I will be back, not before.

    Pay attention Microsoft!!

    Edge tracking cookies

    Before admonishing others to pay attention, you should take care to be sure you know what you're talking about. Third-party cookies are those that come from a source other than the website you're currently viewing. Tracking cookies can be of the third-party
    variety, but plenty of tracking cookies are not from third parties.
