Does anyone know where cookies are stored on vista? It seems that I can't stop certain web page errors so I want to manually delete some of the cookies, but not all of them.

Anyone any ideas please? And if so, what are they?

I usually take care of cookies via my browser..

Hmm i think they are in the temp files but if you rewmove the wrtongfiles or folder your comp can get a bit strange so the best is to go to the browser and do this:

tools\alternatives\webhistory then un-check all the boxes apart from the ''cookie box'' and delete.

In Firefox you can find it in Extra-Options-Privacy, I'm sure IE has something similar..

[Stuart2007]

Thanks chaps, but I don't want to delete them all... In IE I only get the option of deleting them all...

It was simple in XP...

[saltydog]

Then get Firefox..

I've had Firefox for 8 years, never a problem..
Besides, you can have both on your computer (and it's free)  I don't understand your reservation..

My computer has enough stuff on it already... its due for a fresh installation (I might even get around to putting vista pro on again (last time i re-installed, i couldnt be bothered waiting for it)

Can't help you on Vista but Windows Explorer can be of help. Load it up and search for cookies. You'll probably finds 100's of them. Select all the files and then hold Ctrl and click on each one you want to keep, then select Delete.
