Summary	0002218: WebBrowser Caching Information
Description	WebBrowser isn't going to the correct version of a page after closing and reopening. I suspect the device is somehow caching information that's preventing a that page from loading fresh. Previously we were calling Cef.DeleteCookies("", "") prior to navigating. I tried intentionally caching information by setting WebBrowser.CachePath and then clearing that manually, but the files in the cache were always in use and threw exceptions, even when the view containing the WebBrowser was unloaded.

Platform	Any

hcpizzi 2022-01-04 12:41 developer ~0007710	If WebBrowser.CachePath is not set, all the cahed data is held in memory, which means it would be reset when the application closes. Is that the behavior you want? Or would you like to be able to just clear the cookies on demand?

hcpizzi 2022-01-11 14:40 developer ~0007725	A new static function WebBrowser.DeleteCookies has been added. It must be called after setting WebBrowser.CachePath. It deletes the cookes for the specified URL, or all of them if the URL is empty.
