If they are so safe and harmless why can’t we see exactly what is in them! 380 plus cookies from using 3 windows apps(weather, news, money). But of course we are supposed to take it for granted that all cookies are safe and harmless. Using BrowsingHistoryView I could see how all 3 items are tracked, meaning anything I do off the internet is tracked. So I opened 2 locally stored video’s and had this document open and Windows 10 tracked all 3 things as thought it was an internet tracking event. The biggest surprise is that windows is tracking any locale file opened. It’s amazing how many cookies are showing up (380+) after using these app’s. Opening windows apps is just like opening a browser with out giving you the option to block cookies if you want. As far as I can tell setting Edge to no cookies does not carry over to other windows app’s. In other words Edge is the only windows program/app that allows you to say no cookies. Cookies are generated by those app’s and I am sure other’s to. Using EdgeCookiesView will show all Windows apps like Edge, Weather app(weather news section), News app, Money app. Windows 10 is auto generating cookies before I ever open a browser. Using the first 3 programs listed above I can tell some of what Microsoft Windows 10 is tracking.
