When you open web pages, the browser stores their constituent elements in storage on your computer, commonly referred to as "cache". The next time you visit the same resources, the necessary elements are extracted from it instead of re-downloading via the Internet, which significantly speeds up the process. When the cache space is full, the browser removes the oldest items. But sometimes it becomes necessary to clear the cache forcibly.
Instructions
Step 1
In the Mozilla FireFox browser, open the menu section titled "Tools" and click on the "Delete personal data" item. You can press CTRL + SHIFT + Delete instead of these manipulations. In the delete dialog, make sure that there is a check mark next to the "Cache" item, and also check if there are any tags for the data types that you would like to keep. Click the Remove Now button to start the cleaning process.
Step 2
In Internet Explorer, click the Tools section of the menu and select Internet Options. In the window that opens, go to the "General" tab and click the "Delete" button located in the "Browsing history" section. A new window with the title "Delete browsing history" will open, where the "Delete files" button is intended to start the procedure for clearing the cache - and press it.
Step 3
In the Opera browser, open the menu, go to the "Settings" section and select the "Delete personal data" item. In the window that opens, under the text of a warning about the possible consequences of clearing browser storage, there is an inscription "Detailed settings" - click it to expand the list of data to be deleted. Make sure the "Clear cache" checkbox is checked and the data you want to keep is not. Click the "Delete" button to start stripping.
Step 4
In the Google Chrome browser, click the wrench icon in the upper right corner of the window and select Options from the menu. Then go to the "Advanced" page and click the "Clear browsing data" button to see a dialog box for clearing browser stored goodness. In the drop-down list, select the depth of history to which the sweep should be extended, make sure that the box next to the "Clear porridge" item is checked and nothing superfluous is checked. Click the Clear Browsed Pages button to start the cleaning procedure.
Step 5
In the Apple Safari browser, expand the "Edit" section and select the line "Clear cache memory" or simply press the key combination CTRL + alt="Image" + E. The browser will ask you to confirm the operation - click "Clear".
