Viewing local storage contents on IE

How can I view the contents of HTML5 local storage in IE? Chrome and FireFox provide a way through their developer tools to view the contents of local storage but I couldn't find that information using IE9 developer tool.

In IE11, you can see local storage in console on dev tools:

  1. Show dev tools (press F12)
  2. Click "Console" or press Ctrl+2
  3. Type localStorage and press Enter

Also, if you need to clear the localStorage, type localStorage.clear() on console.
