Cookies and Site Data
Ancestry.com is complaining that I am not permitting them to store data on my PC. This increases our internet communications and slows things down, among other problems. I have excepted them from enhanced tracking, cookies and site data, I do not block cookies or tracking content, and I remember history. Which setting is eluding me?

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?
