Google Chrome is my favorite Web Browser and it seems we do have full control over your browsing data. This data includes your browsing and download history, cache, cookies, passwords, and saved form data.
Use the Clear browsing data dialog to delete all your data or just a portion of your data, collected during a specific period of time. But there are still a bunch of files that it doesn’t touch.
