That is a very old version. You should consider upgrading.

They are not suppose to be. TIdCookieManager has no export/import
capabilities. You have to manage persistent storage of the cookie data

You are responsible for saving cookies on application shutdown and restoring

The Cookie specifications do not say anything about physical storage, only
how to pass cookie values from one HTTP reply to a subsequent HTTP request.
Persisent storage is up to the user to manage, particularly since there are
no established standards for how cookie files should be formatted.
