Aside the fact, that the question is a little bit older, here a solution in python for chrome I made for my tests. If you have some ideas to make it more elegant or effective or if you see errors, feel free to refactor it
Remark: on my system all the chrome stuff is in Roaming, so I use AppData instead of LocalAppData
def clear_stored_info_chrome(): excluded_items = [item.upper() for item in [ r"Preferences", r"Origin Bound", r"Extension" ] ] found_items = [item.upper() for item in glob.glob( os.path.join( aqEnvironment.GetEnvironmentVariable("AppData"), r"Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\*" ) ) ] for item in found_items: is_excluded = [True for tag in excluded_items if tag in item] if not is_excluded: try: if os.path.isdir(item): shutil.rmtree(item, ignore_errors=True) else: os.remove(item) except BaseException as e: # I ignore errors of any kind, just a remark to Log Log.Message("clear chrome stored info: {} - {}".format(item, e))
