[BUG][FIXED] Edge Stable 86.0.622.38 is ignoring cookies and site settings.
MELERIX Hey, friend! First, I wanted to acknowledge your effort here to ensure we see as many of the threads as we can. Your thread here helped me find a couple of others I hadn't been aware of. This is massively appreciated!
That being said, the team is aware and are working on getting this resolved. As you have noted, making sure that Hosted app data is NOT selected on edge://settings/clearBrowsingDataOnClose is the current temporary workaround. I'll reach back out once I hear back from the team! Appreciate your patience while we dig into it. :3

MissyQ Is there any update on the fix. There are 10K users affected from our client company that they are unable to login to Facebook Workplace.

murali555 Did the mentioned interim solution from @Rich Alan not work for you?

Hugo_Plaisier Alan says- "Changing "Hosted App Data" from "clearing each time" to "not clearing each time" works for me." And in fact, we never configured this setting means 'Hosted App Data' is already set to 'Not clearing each time'.
I believe its the same workaround suggested by MissyQ which has not helped us.

murali555 No updates at this time, I'm afraid. We are still working on it, and the workaround of disabling "Hosted app data" as an option to clear in edge://settings/clearBrowsingDataOnClose should still fix people.
I will for sure post back here once I know of any updates or full mitigations! I'll try to tag everyone who has commented in here saying they were impacted, too. We truly appreciate everyone's patience while we work on getting this sorted! :3
