Disable local storage but not cookies in Edge

Question

I need to reproduce a problem with a client who uses a particularly "hardened" environment. I suspect they might have local storage somehow disabled but not cookies and I need to reproduce that in my test environment. They are using Microsoft Edge.

Is there any way to block local storage but cookies in Edge - preferably per-site?

Answer 1

I found a way to disable it globally, by using a command line flag. Make sure to kill any existing msedge.exe processes using Task Manager for the flag to take effect.

taskkill /f /im msedge.exe
"c:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge\Application\msedge.exe" --disable-local-storage
