How To Clear a Cache in Chrome |
Clearing the cache in Google Chrome is a simple process. Here's how you can do it:
Steps to Clear Cache in Google Chrome:
1. Open Google Chrome:
Launch the Chrome browser on your computer.
2. Access the Chrome Menu:
Click on the three vertical dots in the upper right corner of the browser window. This opens the Chrome menu.
3. Go to More Tools:
Hover over “More tools” in the dropdown menu.
4. Select Clear Browsing Data:
Click on “Clear browsing data…” in the submenu that appears.
5. Choose a Time Range:
In the dialog box that appears, you can choose the time range for which you want to clear the cache.
Options include “Last hour,” “Last 24 hours,” “Last 7 days,” “Last 4 weeks,” or “All time.” Select “All time” if you want to clear the entire cache.
6. Select What to Clear:
Make sure the box next to “Cached images and files” is checked. You can also select other data types to clear, such as “Browsing history” and “Cookies and other site data,” but these are optional.
If you only want to clear the cache, leave the other boxes unchecked.
7. Clear the Data:
Once you’ve made your selections, click the “Clear data” button.
8. Wait for the Process to Complete:
Chrome will take a moment to clear the cache. Once it's done, your cached files will be deleted.
