浏览器重启后清除本地存储变量

Question

I have the following variable localStorage.timesDisplayed in the browser's local storage.

I am wondering if there is a way to clear that variable with Javascript when browser is restarted.

I can use : delete localStorage.timesDisplayed to delete the variable, but I am not sure how to detect that the browser has been restarted on the page load.

You could use sessionStorage instead. It will clear when the user exits your site.
