Where Opera browser stores its cookies

Question

I am developing a VB tool for clean cookies. FF and IE has specified path for store cookies and I just delete files in these path. But I don't really know where Opera store the cookies and how to delete Opera cookies. Please give me a advice.

Answer 1

The other answer is pretty old. On 1 January, 2020, Opera 65.0.3467.78 uses

%AppData%\Roaming\Opera Software\Opera Stable

There is a "cookies" file that is in SQLite format in that directory. There is also a "cookies-journal" file in that directory.

Information about managing cookies in Opera is available at:

Answer 2

Opera stores its cookies in %appdata%\Opera\Opera\cookies4.dat, and you can just delete the file. If you want to delete individual cookies, that would take a lot more work.
