[dba-Tech] Fwd: Frustrating

[John Bartow]

You probably don't want to do that every time. I would suggest you close your browser more often though. Like most apps on Windows, they tend to consume more the longer they live 😉
I do it for security reasons (because I'm an MSP using cloud portals, managing, and remoting into a lot of client computers, etc.).

What I'd suggest is using the new cloud age "3 finger salute" when needed, such as before you're going into Kaiser:
Ctrl-Shift-Del Then choose the time period of "All time" (that's for Edge, "Everything" in Firefox) click the items down the list. I click all items, but you may want to live life closer to the edge and keep passwords and form fills, then dump them.

So I'm back from Sequoia and want to try this. I didn't have any opinion on keeping or deleting cookies. I think some of them make browsing and navigating a site easier. So I'll try your fix. Which seems to work on the first try. But if it's cookies, then deleting on close might be a good idea.  Where is that option?

Of course, I have to remember to close once in a while. Sometimes my browser stays open for a week.

Thanks
