Which browser (and version) are you using?
Go to the resolved security risks and it should show the location of the cookies (hover on the red triangle in performance and click view details).

Hi shane,
In internet Explorer goto tools->Internet options->Browsing History->Settings->View Files
It will open the location for you.Just above that option you can see the location.
You can also directly to C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Cookies\
I have several cookie folders on my computer. How can I find the folder that NAV detected the cookie in?
Thanks,
Shane.
