<p>So, let’s get
started with removing Internet Explorer Browser Cookies and Microsoft Edge browser
cookies.</p>
<h2><strong>Just a Reminder</strong></h2>
<p>Cookies are tiny data files that sites use to store info on
you and your surfing habits. They will be utilized to learn your likings or
following you for promotional reasons. There are several kinds of cookies.&nbsp; Some will be helpful, while others might
endanger your confidentiality. </p>
<p>Although you are aware that some cookies are helpful and
don't store up a lot of data, you nonetheless probably want to avoid a web
browser from following your activities. Now, let’s get it on and tackle those
Microsoft browsers. We will begin with the unsupported Internet Explorer (IE),
but still widely used. Then we will finish off with Edge, the latest Microsoft
Windows 10 browser.</p>

<p>And Presto! The purge of Edge browser cookies is complete - until the next website visit 😊</p>
<p>Like Chrome, Edge allows you to always clear cookies when you close the browser. On the surface, this may seem helpful. In practice, it might be a nuisance. Every time you use Edge you will most likely be forced to log in. But the possibility is there for you, just see the below instruction. You can block third-party cookies there as well. Here is how you do it:</p>
<p>1. Under ‘<em>Privacy &amp; Security</em>’ you select “<em>Block all cookies</em>’ or you can ‘<em>Block Only Third-Party cookies.</em>’</p>
