If I go to: chrome://settings/content/all there is an entry "whats-new"
This is from youtube.com and has 4 cookies.
I have repeatedly used the delete from the same window, but the entry will not go away.
I cannot do a global delete as I have cookies from other websites that need to be kept.
How do I get rid of this nuisance?

I rarely use YouTube and if I used it in the last couple of days, it would have been via another website.
When I searched for the Chrome version, it did an update.
But after that, the same problem occurred.
