      I have an option to delete cookies activated when I close Opera, but it just doesn't work. Everytime I close it everything stays. I use just 2 exceptions. In Firefox similar option works perfectly fine, what's wrong with Opera on this one? I don't want to manually delete cookies after every session and I want cookies for google and one more site to stay to keep me logged in.

          @leocg Just tested on Chrome, there it works as intended, seems like only Opera has such problem.

            @nabac No cookies are removed? Or they are but some are kept?

              @leocg I did deeper testing and only some cookies remain, but still Chrome clears it all, while Opera leaves some cookies or "empty" containers like this one from https://naszamlawa.pl/

              in Chrome such thing like naszamlawa.pl in cookies data doesn't appear after closing browser. I use kinda the same settings on both Opera and Chrome.
              Not that it's such a big problem, but I like to keep everything clean from trash. 🙂 Would be cool if theres button to clear all cookies but leave ones I need. When I clean cookies by opera://settings/clearBrowserData then all cookies get deleted, also these from google and podatki.biz I set exception for.
