Incomplete cookie cleaning in Chrome 95.0.4638.69 and CCleaner 5.86.9258

I noticed cookies from Yahoo and a few other websites remain despite manually deleting their cookies that appear in the OPTIONS>COOKIES menu. This seems to have just started happening. Using Win10.

You say "manually deleting"; is there any particular reason why you didn't use CCleaner to delete them?

(Or do you mean that you right-clicked and selected 'Delete Now'?)

Do you have your browser synced?

See this for why syncing, and other things, will bring cookies and files back after cleaning:

Is the browser fully closed, ie. nothing still running in the background?

Try:


    Open Chrome > click Menu > Settings


    Click Advanced > System


    Move the "Continue running background apps when Google Chrome is closed" switch to the left, to the "Off" position
