Hey Russell,,
Here is a free idea for you.
A Safari extension/app that allows us to select arbitrary images and other elements of the current web page and temporarily eliminate them as a way to clean-up a page before printing/saving etc.
There used to be a Safari extension that did this but it is long since gone.
There seem to be a couple of add-ons out there for Chrome and Firefox, but nothing for Safari, AFAIK.

@Timmy said in Cooke is running, but no menu or settings icon:

I just started having an issue with the Cookie (MAS and non-MAS beta) menu bar icon on 10.13.6, all of a sudden the menubar icon is greyed-out.

OK. I'm an idiot!
I had accidentally 'Paused Automatic Removal.'
Carry on...

@SweetP said in Chrome 'Downloads' not being cleared?:

Ive been working on another app, but I got back to work on this today.
the latest Beta should fix it:

The 5.9.9.5. beta looks good!
Chrome downloads are being cleared!
I've only tested this using Remove "On Browser Quit" since that is how I use Cookie in all of my browsers.
Thanks for resolving this, Russell!
Since you are such a browser expert I have a free idea for you for a Safari extension! Interested?

@SweetP said in Chrome 'Downloads' not being cleared?:

@Timmy really?
are you deleted the downloads while Chrome is open or closed - because Its more than likely cached while open.

As mentioned in the initial report, we are using 'Remove on Browser Quit.'

@SweetP said in Chrome 'Downloads' not being cleared?:

Ive just uploaded beta version 5.9.9.4
can you let me know if it fixes the downloads removal for you

ah I see you're on the MAS version.
but, you still can download the beta from here:

No improvement with 5.9.9.4 beta.

I'll test the 5.9.9.4 beta soon.
If anything Cookie related becomes corrupted as a result of mixing the MAS and non-MAS beta version I'm probably going to freak out a little bit.

I just want to confirm that the non MAS beta can be installed alongside the current MAS version. I'll probably put the beta in ~/Applications
Thanks.

It's anarchy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've tried disabling and reenabling Chrome in Cookie with no improvement. Also tested in a newly created Chrome 'Person' and the 'Downloads' are still not being cleared.
