nope. I have downloaded images from unsplash before, but have renamed and either moved or deleted them.
I don't have any kind of image-related extension installed in Chrome.
I searched the Windows registry and found no reference to unsplash

I turned off synch and cleared cookies - no change.
I removed MSN.com from opening tabs and eliminated these cookies:
- adsrvr.org
- bing.com
- doubleclick.net
- geistm.com
- outbrain.com
- widgets.outbrain.com
Still can't figure where unsplash.com is coming from.

The msn cookie isn't the one I am concerned about, I know it shows up because I have msn.com set as one of my open tabs.
It's the cookies that have no business being on my machine after I have cleaned all unwanted cookies and open Chrome without visiting any new pages. Cookies like unsplash, outbrain, etc. as I list below...
- adsrvr.org
- amazon.fr
- bing.com
- doubleclick.net
- geistm.com
- history.paypal.com
- outbrain.com
- unsplash.com
- widgets.outbrain.com

I use Ccleaner to manage what cookies I want to keep on my Windows 10 desktop, so they aren’t removed when I clear Chrome cache. I have noticed that I run the cleaner, but once I open Chrome, a bunch of cookies are added onto my computer again.
Some are obvious – a msn.com cookie because I have one tab opening to msn.com, but some are not obvious and seem a bit malicious to be added without my visiting the site.
Where are they coming from, and how do I stop them?
- adsrvr.org
- amazon.fr
- bing.com
- doubleclick.net
- geistm.com
- history.paypal.com
- outbrain.com
- unsplash.com
- widgets.outbrain.com

I did see that the site was deemed safe, but having a cookie regenerate itself on my computer without having visited the site bothers me.
