Is it possible to clear all cookie at the time one closing browser/browser tab. In asp.net

Question

I need to clear all cookies when exiting browser. The purpose of doing this is so that when someone visits this page again after exiting once, the user can have a fresh start. I'm developing my site in asp.net c#

is this a user who wants to programmatically delete all cookies on browser close, or a website for which the cookies are deleted on session end? — user1666620, Jul 30 '15 at 11:51

Sounds like you want session cookies. That's pretty simple - just don't specify an expiry date when setting that cookie. This way it will be deleted when the browser closes. Note however that it's when the browser closes, not the tab. Closing the tab without closing the browser will keep the cookies until the browser is closed. If the tab is re-opened without closing the browser, the cookies will still be there.

You can achieve this by client side code also.

On page load event, set cookie value with empty string

document.cookie = ' '

This will cause a page refresh to reset the cookies too. – Vilx- Jul 30 '15 at 14:04
