Like every other web browser, Microsoft Edge stores your browsing data to provide a better experience. When you visit websites using Edge, it saves cookies, browsing history, passwords, and other data.
If you’re privacy conscious, you can manually delete the Microsoft Edge data, but what if you use a public or shared computer and don’t want the browsing data saved at all?

4. On the right side, scroll down to the Delete Browsing Data section.
