    Location Of Cookies In 64 Bit IE With Win7 ?


    Hi,

    Can anyone please tell me the file location of cookies in a 64 bit version of Internet Explorer on a Windows 7 PC ?

    I have looked everywhere but cannot locate them and my AV software keeps telling me I have tracking cookies. I have enabled viewing of hidden files but have kep Operating System files hidden.

    I have no problem finding cookies on an XP machine but with Win7 I am stuck.

    Thx for any help

    They are hidden

    You must go to control panel
    folders

    check show hidden files
    show protected hidden sytem files

    Then
    click on computer
    c drive
    users
    your account name
    appdata
    roaming
    microsoft
    windows
    cookies
    low

    Apparantly MS, does not want you to find them.

    TY for the rep. A little additional information. It is the position of Microsoft that the hidden system files are the source of potential computer problems if changed incorrectly. That is why they hid them.
