If you tick either of those you\u2019ll probably find you\u2019ll have a lot of trouble with some of the sites you visit frequently. On the other hand, you can always check them to see what happens and if there\u2019s a problem you can always return Chrome to its default setting \u201cAllow local data to be set (recommended)\u201d or you can set it to \u201cKeep local data only until you quit your browser\u201d. If your brave mess around with these settings and see what happens \u2013 you can\u2019t ruin your computer or Chrome browser by dabbling with these settings. Anything you do can be reversed.<\/p>\n<p>The other options you see are pretty self-explanatory, even EB gets it <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-smiley\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thundercloud.net\/infoave\/new\/wp-includes\/images\/smilies\/simple-smile.png\" alt=\":-)\" \/> You\u2019ll be well-advised to allow JavaScript or you may find many of your favorite Web sites won\u2019t work correctly.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/thundercloud.net\/infoave\/images\/2015\/chrome-privacy1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"388\" height=\"541\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Below you\u2019ll see more Content settings.
