How to clear localStorage in IE10 & IE11 from developer tool?

Question

I opened IE11 developer tool it has lot of options , but i cant find how can I the clear localStorage data. ?

is there something like this in IE11 ?

Will clear cache data does not clear localStorage or sessionStorage data ?

Solution 1

Try to type this in the JavaScript console

localStorage.clear();
sessionStorage.clear();

I think this is the most straightforward way to do this. I don't see any option that explicitly affects localStorage and/or sessionStorage in developer tools (at least nothing that looks like the Resources view in Dev Tools in Chrome).

EDIT2 In Microsoft Edge, there is a way to see/clear localStorage, sessionStorage and cookies through the GUI.

• Open the Dev Tools (F12)
• Go to Debugger View
• Open the localStorage tab (click the folder icon or Ctrl+O, select localStorage)
• Select all and delete (through right clicking, or Ctrl-A + Del)

Solution 2

Try localStorage.clear() and sessionStorage.clear() in Console panel of IE Developer toolbar. It returns an "undefined" but seems to clear local storage and session storage.

Solution 3

Try this:

window.localStorage.clear();
window.sessionStorage.clear();

it returns undefined because clear does not return anything, hence undefined.

The UI may have changed since - to open the localStorage / cookies etc tabs on Edge / IE 11, click the folder icon in your debugger view.
