Cookie Management in Microsoft Edge

How can I manage cookies individually in Microsoft Edge?  

Specifically, I would like to delete all of my cookies except those related to my password manager (which I need to keep active in order to log into websites) every time I close my browser.  

It seems that Edge does not have any settings that allow for granular management of cookies.  Is this really true?  I have been mostly happy with Edge and want to continue using it, but proper cookie management is an absolute requirement for using a web browser in 2017.  

Please tell me there is a way to do this or I will have to go back to Firefox.

Hello,

Your browsing history is the information that Microsoft Edge remembers and stores on a PC as your browse the web. This includes info you've entered into forms, passwords, and sites you've visited, and it helps make your browsing experience better.

Kindly follow the below steps to manage cookies in Microsoft Edge.

  1. Open Microsoft Edge.
  2. Click on More options (… symbol) on the top right corner of the browser.
  3. Select Settings from the drop down menu.
  4. Click on Choose what to clear under Clear browsing data.
  5. Check the Cookies and saved website data (and any other data you want to clear) and click on Clear button.

Reference: We suggest you to refer the below Microsoft help article for more information about Microsoft Edge:

Hi

This facility is not available with Edge. Hopefully it will be in the future, but for now the cookie settings are limited to the three allow or block options or delete them all on closing browser. Or set to allow and don't delete but individual editing is not possible.
