How to delete cookies files

Following my blog post yesterday- New cookies data law kicks in I was asked how to delete cookies from other browsers- as I had only mentioned Mozilla’s Firefox browser and Microsoft’s Internet Explorer.

Therefore in the interests of wider information, I hope that the below will be of help to you:

At the top of the toolbar select Tools,
Select Clear Recent History,
Check the Cookies box.

Click the Tools cogs icon,
Select Internet Options,

To delete all cookies at the end of every session, select it in the privacy settings under:

It is good practice to regularly clean the cookies out of your browsers.
