How To Clear Cache On Common Browsers

The guide is a landing page for other guides that will explain how to clear browser data on some of the most used web browsers.

What is "clearing the cache"?

Clearing your cache involves deleting the temporary files that your web browser stores to help load websites faster. These files are automatically removed over time, but you can manually clear the cache to free up space or resolve loading issues. When you clear the cache, you're only removing these temporary files—your saved files, bookmarks, emails, and social media posts remain unaffected. Just be careful when selecting options, as clearing cache is often grouped with deleting cookies and browsing history.
