Cookie Manager arrives in Classic

You have been asking for this one for a very long time and believe me, I have been working on it for just as long. Cookies look simple until modern browsers hide them inside shared SQLite databases and expect cleaners to perform surgery instead of deletion.

After a lot of development, testing, and a few moments of questioning the entire concept of browser cookies, the new Cookie Manager is finally ready for its first public test in FluentCleaner Classic

Whats new in v1.14?

• [Improved] Locked or unsupported cookie databases are safely skipped instead of being deleted
• [Improved] Cookie protection is stored in settings.json and works in portable mode
• Updated Lithuanian translation Updated Lithuanian translation for classic #150
• Updated Simplified Chinese [Classic Edition] Updated Simplified Chinese Translation #149
• Updated Bulgarian localization [Classic] Update Bulgarian localization #148

Is "[Added] Support for Microsoft Edge, Chrome, Brave, Chromium, Vivaldi, Opera and Firefox profiles" linked to my issue #146 ?

[Belim]

@AFaustini was only referring to the cookie manager support, thanks

not planned for now. winapp2 already covers a huge number of browsers, so a separate custom-profile system would mostly duplicate existing rules. which browser and profile path are you actually missing? give me a concrete example and ill check whether it belongs in winapp2 instead

[AFaustini]

A example how CCleaner (in ccleaner.ini) does:

CustomLocation1=FIREFOX|D:\Programas\Firefox\profile
CustomLocation2=VIVALDI|D:\Programas\Vivaldi\User Data\Default

I think CCleaner override the default cleaners path to this ini paths.

Instructions on piriform website (https://support.ccleaner.com/s/article/how-to-clean-user-data-from-other-browsers-with-ccleaner-for-windows?language=en_US):
Method #1: Clean profile information using the CustomLocation entry in ccleaner.ini

You can enter as many locations for CCleaner to clean as you like in the Options section of ccleaner.ini, but they must be in the following format:

CustomLocationX=FIREFOX|[folder path]

Or

CustomLocationX=CHROME|[folder path]

Where X is a whole number starting at 1 and going upwards.

Here is an example which specifies two Mozilla-based browser locations for cleaning:

CustomLocation1=FIREFOX|C:\MagicFox\data

CustomLocation2=FIREFOX|C:\GeckoWow\profile\sam

Notes:

The location entries must start at 1 and proceed (sequentially) upwards.
The folder path is case-insensitive.
You must use the term "FIREFOX" or "CHROME", followed by the pipe symbol and the folder path.

Hi Belim, how are you doing? 😊

The implementation off a Cookie manager is highly appreciated, thank you. 👍
How does one (selectively) delete any cookie? There's no rule, button, menu, or context menu to be found for this.

After moving any cookies I'd like to keep to the “Cookies to keep” list, I ran an analysis and executed a cleanup, but that left the cookies in the “Cookies found” list untouched.

The ability to manage Cookies is the only reason I still keep CCleaner64 v6.40. I haven't found a replacement yet, and I hope that FluentCleaner Classic can be its successor.
