Cookies are related to the browsers.So how can you create a Universal cookie for your Desktop Application ? Your question is wrong or what ?

Okay so now you need to explain how a browser is related to your desktop application.

Cookie is outdated my friend.You can use Web Storage with HTML 5.

What is HTML5 Web Storage ?

With HTML5, web pages can store data locally within the user's browser.

Earlier, this was done with cookies. However, Web Storage is more secure and faster. The data is not included with every server request, but used ONLY when asked for. It is also possible to store large amounts of data, without affecting the website's performance.

The data is stored in name/value pairs, and a web page can only access data stored by itself.

Unlike cookies, the storage limit is far larger (at least 5MB) and information is never transferred to the server.
