Enable Cookies in Google Chrome on Desktop

To turn on cookies in Chrome on a Windows, Mac, Linux, or Chromebook computer, use these steps.

First, open Chrome on your computer. In the top-right corner of Chrome, click the three dots.

In the three-dots menu, click “Settings.”

On the “Settings” page, from the sidebar on the left, select “Privacy and Security.”

In the pane on the right, click “Site Settings.”

You’ll see a “Site Settings” page. Here, in the “Content” section, click “Cookies and Site Data.”

Chrome will open a “Cookies and Other Site Data” page. On this page, in the “General Settings” section, enable the “Block Third-Party Cookies in Incognito” option. This enables both first-party and third-party cookies in regular Chrome windows, but blocks third-party cookies in incognito windows.

To allow all cookies in both regular and incognito windows, then on the same “Cookies and Other Site Data” page, turn on the “Allow All Cookies” option.

And that’s it. The websites you access can now store cookies in Chrome on your computer.

Enable Cookies in Google Chrome on Mobile

In Chrome on an iPhone and iPad, cookies always remain turned on. This means you don’t have to do anything to enable cookies in your browser.

In Chrome on Android, use a Settings option to enable cookies. Start by opening Chrome on your Android phone.

In Chrome’s top-right corner, tap the three dots.

From the three-dots menu, select “Settings.”

In “Settings,” from the “Advanced” section, select “Site Settings.”

On the “Site Settings” page, tap “Cookies” to manage your cookie settings.

You’ll now see a “Cookies” screen. Here, turn on the “Block Third-Party Cookies in Incognito” option to enable both first-party and third-party cookies in regular Chrome windows, but block third-party cookies in incognito windows.

To enable both first-party and third-party cookies in both regular and incognito Chrome windows, then activate the “Allow Cookies” option.

And that’s how you allow websites to remember your preferences in Google Chrome. Happy personalized browsing!
