Clear Cookies

If you log in and see a blank page with the green bar across the top, but nothing else will load, you may need to clear your browser’s cache and cookies.

Caution

Before you clear cookies, be aware that clearing cookies will cause you to lose your registered workstations and local settings if they are still stored on the browser. As of Evergreen 3.3 these settings are stored on the Sitka server, and they have to be moved from browser to server manually. Clearing cookies, and subsequently reconfiguring local settings in Evergreen, will manually save settings to the Sitka server by default, and then clearing browser cookies will no longer be a concern for local settings. It is important to remember your workstation name. Your workstation settings and preferences are stored on Sitka’s Evergreen server with your workstation name. If you rename your workstation you will lose your stored settings and preferences.
