Windows 10: MS Edge Third Party cookies blocked but does not pass the Cookie test

I have set MS Edge (non-Chromium version) to block only Third-party cookies and I went to GRC Cookie Forensics, the Third Party cookie test had failed.

See attached image.

Why is it failing or not passing the test?

My wild guess may be, is the webpage may be too out of date to support MS Edge.

Allow or Block Cookies in Microsoft Edge in Windows 10


Microsoft Edge will not keep the setting allow cookies or block third party cookies. When I go to websites that require cookies I get a message telling me to enable cookies, even though they are enabled in settings.

Can the reg files listed in the tutorial for enabling or disabling cookies, be used with such an issue? Would you recommend blocking third party cookies?

 

Edge tracking cookies

I had already done the items you suggested with no apparent effect. Still get up to 600!!! tracking cookies if I don't check for several days.

Question: Does "block only 3rd party cookies" mean that all first party cookies are accepted? If so, then that explains why so many tracking cookies appear. If that is true then "Do not track" is totally ineffective, and MS MUST allow a cookie managing
app or provide an option like 8.1 to control which cookies are accepted.

With edgeadblock, Edge has become a very good browser except for the tracking cookie problem. Please provide a fix ASAP.

 

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!!
