How do I clear cookies from Google Earth?

To clear cookies from Google Earth, you need to manually delete the cookies file located on your computer. Here's how:

Steps to Delete Google Earth Cookies

1. Locate the Cookies File:

   • The Google Earth cookies file is typically found in the following directory:
     C:\Users\YOUR_USERNAME\AppData\LocalLow\Google\GoogleEarth\cookies
   • Important: Replace YOUR_USERNAME with your actual Windows username.

2. Delete the File:

   • Once you've located the file, delete it. This action clears the cookies stored by Google Earth.

   
   

Why Clear Cookies?

• Clearing cookies can help resolve certain issues within the Google Earth application.
• It also removes any stored information about your usage, which can be beneficial for privacy.

Additional Information

• Accessing AppData Folder: The AppData folder is usually hidden. To access it, you can:

• Type %appdata% in the Windows search bar and press Enter; this opens your roaming folder. From there navigate back one folder to Local and then navigate to LocalLow, to follow the path mentioned above.

• You can also access it via the file explorer by typing the full path C:\Users\YOUR_USERNAME\AppData\LocalLow directly in the address bar after replacing YOUR_USERNAME with your username.
  
  

• Alternative Approach: While the above approach directly removes the cookies file, there is no built in way in the Google Earth application to clear cookies. This approach is effective in ensuring you can start fresh with Google Earth's settings.

By following these steps, you can successfully clear cookies from Google Earth and resolve related issues.
