Keep cookies of selected websites

Keep the cookies of websites you use regularly, so that you stay signed in there when O&O SafeErase erases browser cookies.

Prerequisite: Close the browsers before you start. O&O SafeErase cannot read the cookies of an open browser and then cannot list its domains.

  1. Open Settings > Cookies to keep.
  2. Select Add….
  3. Type part of the domain, for example bank.example. The list shows matching domains for which your browsers have stored cookies. You can also enter a domain that is not in the list.
  4. Under Applies to, choose Only this domain or This domain and all subdomains. The dialog shows how many of the stored cookies are kept.
  5. Select Add, then confirm the settings with OK.

Result: The next time you erase cookies, the cookies of this domain are kept in all supported browsers.

To erase the cookies of a domain again, remove it from the list. An empty list means that all cookies of the selected browsers are erased.

note

The list only protects cookies. History, cache and the other selected categories of the same website are still erased. Whether a website keeps you signed in also depends on the website itself.
