Revoke 'Store files' permission

Question

My issue is linked to Chrome Browser. I'm developing an app using Сordova and https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-file.

This plugin is asking a permission to use persistent storage on the end-user browser such as:

I have clicked "ALLOW" a long time ago and this popup does not show anymore.

Right now, I'd like to prevent my user to have that popup and therefore I need to revoke that permission within my computer to perform some tests.

I have tried various tests to change browser settingб but I do not succeed on revoking that permission. I'm not speaking about location / flash or other permission, but that specific storage permission.

If anyone has a clue on how to revoke that one, I'll be glad to test it and provide my feedback.

Go to chrome://settings/siteData, search for localhost and there you'll be able to clear File system storage.

That's what this does. It also deletes the files obiviously, as having no permission but the files wouldn't make sense. – Susurrant

By removing the corresponding site in the cookies list, it does what is needed here. BTW, the structure of cookies has been modified in the latest chrome. – Detrition

I've updated the URL and screenshot to reflect the latest Chrome version (at the time of writing v69). – Susurrant
