[google-chrome] Where does Chrome store cookies?

Let's say I set a cookie using the setcookie() function in PHP:

setcookie('name','foo',false,'/',false);

I can see it in:

chrome://settings/cookies 

However, I can not find the actual file stored on my hard disk. Can anyone tell me where this specific cookie is stored on the hard disk?

Since the expiration time is zero (the third argument, the first false) the cookie is a session cookie, which will expire when the current session ends. (See the setcookie reference).

Therefore it doesn't need to be saved.

For Google chrome Version 56.0.2924.87 (Latest Release) cookies are found inside profile1 folder.

If you browse that you can find variety of information.

There is a separate file called "Cookies". Also the Cache folder is inside this folder.

Path : C:\Users\user_name\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Profile 1

Remember to replace user_name.

For Version 61.0.3163.100
Path : C:\Users\user_name\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default

Inside this folder there is Cookies file and Cache folder.

On Windows the path is:

C:\Users\<current_user>\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\<Profile 1>\Cookies(Type:File)

Chrome doesn't store each cookies in separate text file. It stores all of the cookies together in a single file in the profile folder. That file is not readable.

You can find a solution on SuperUser :

Chrome cookies folder in Windows 7:-

C:\Users\your_username\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\
You'll need a program like SQLite Database Browser to read it.

For Mac OS X, the file is located at :-
~/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default/Cookies

Actually the current browsing path to the Chrome cookies in the address bar is: chrome://settings/content/cookies
