How to delete indexedDB?
google-chrome, indexeddb
Solution
In theory, all you need to do to delete an IndexedDB in Chrome is:
- In Chrome, go to Options > Under the Hood > Content Settings > All cookies and Site Data > find the domain where you created the IndexedDB
- Hit either the "X" or click "Indexed Database" > Remove
In Windows, the file is located here:
`%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\IndexedDB`
On Mac, do the following:
- In Chrome, go to "Settings" (or "Preferences" under the Chrome menu)
- Click "show advanced settings" (at the bottom of the page)
- Go to "Privacy" > "Content Settings" > "All cookies and Site Data" > find the domain where you created the IndexedDB
- Hit either the "X" or click "Indexed Database" > Remove
On Mac, the folder is located here:
/Users/[USERNAME]/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default/IndexedDB/
On Linux, the folder is located at:
/home/[USERNAME]/.config/google-chrome/Default/IndexedDB/
Problem
I'm working in a project which involves using IndexedDB. As I'm begining to know this technology, I need to be able to delete an indexedDB by hand so I can start over. I found the way to do it in Firefox, but I can't find the way for Google Chrome. I tried deleting the content of this folder (I'm using Mac): `{home}/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default/IndexedDB` but it seems Chrome stil have the DB anywhere so I can't start over.
