Set ChromeDir=C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data Chrome creates this directory anew if it finds it off The easiest way to get rid of all this data is just to erase everything there. Google ChromeĬhrome stores history, cookies, cache and bookmarks in various databases and directories in the per-user application data directory at C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data. The easiest way to solve it was to run a batch cleanup script after each browser. The problem was that the browsers had to be reset between consequent uses. I wrote these batch scripts for the Browserling startup that I am doing together with James Halliday.
It also documents how to erase the nasty new flash cookies that are browser-independent.
The tutorial comes with Windows batch scripts for each browser. The tricks in this post work only on Windows operating system but it's not hard to transfer them to other systems. This is going to be a short privacy tutorial on how to clear cache, cookies and history in all five major browsers – Internet Explorer, Chrome, Firefox, Opera, and Safari.
