As the 2nd article points out, they are capable of regenerating after deletion with files that go to many parts of the system.


Safari/Browsers – can’t delete cookies

Quit Safari.


In Finder go to Go menu and then Go to Folder.


Copy and paste this ~/Library/Safari/Databases.


Delete the contents of the folder.


Launch Safari again and check if all is ok.


If that doesn’t work, copy and paste this ~/Library/Safari/LocalStorage.


Delete the contents of the folder.


Then go to Safari/History and delete any entries for the related websites.


Test.
