      Ok, I've come back to using Opera after some time. The other day when I closed my browser and opened it the next day, I noticed that was still signed into many websites. So I went to check my settings, and I could find absolutely nothing that will allow me to clear cookies on browser exit. Yes, I know you're supposed to go to Advance and check, but there is no setting at all. A little help ?

        @HeavyD250 Opera doesn't have such feature, like other browsers also don't have.

          Not true. I've used both Edge and Brave. They both allow you to choose what to clear or delete when browser closes. Notice this pic from Brave:

            @HeavyD250 True, since browsers like Chrome doesn't have it.

              Is the "Delete data sites have saved to your device when you close all windows" setting (which includes cookies) at the URL opera://settings/content/siteData what you want?

                  @HeavyD250 For now, Chrome and Safari don't have this feature.
                  But in Opera, now you are able to automatically clear cookies on exit (as well as other site data, history, passwords, cached files).
                  In Settings, under Privacy and Security, select Delete browsing data and click the On exit section. There you can check which data you want to be deleted after closing Opera.
