WININET_E_COOKIE_NEEDS_CONFIRMATION
WININET_E_COOKIE_NEEDS_CONFIRMATION is a WinINet HRESULT. It means that the server offered a cookie whose acceptance requires a user decision under the current WinINet privacy or security policy. It is primarily relevant to interactive and legacy browser-style workflows.
What to check
- Determine whether the client is expected to show a cookie-consent or privacy decision UI.
- For non-interactive code, avoid relying on a user confirmation path and configure cookie handling deliberately.
- Check domain, path, security and privacy policy rules that apply to the offered cookie.
