Re: [JAWS-Users] Deleting Amazon Tracking Cookies From IE 11
I don't know about deleting the tracking cookies, but if you go into "Your Account" and into the section on Prim, there is a link towards the end of the section that will reinstitute the "full site". -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Gerald Levy Sent: Saturday, November 14, 2015 10:09 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] Deleting Amazon Tracking Cookies From IE 11 Every time I try to access the regular Amazon.com site using IE 11 with JAWS 16 and Windows 7, I am taken directly to the mobile Amazon.com site instead. I have tried deleting all browsing history on the IE 11 Tools menu, but the Amazon tracking cookies are apparently not being deleted because when I close IE 11 and relaunch it and then visit Amazon.com again, I am still being taken to the mobile site instead of the regular site. What must I do to specifically delete the Amazon tracking cookies that are preventing me from accessing the regular site? Thanks.
