How do I clear my cache?

A cache is temporary storage that helps your browser quickly load previously viewed web pages, apps, and programs like a shortcut for faster access. If you’re noticing slow performance, freezing, or error messages, your browser’s cache might be the cause.

Clear Cache in Browsers

If your browser isn’t listed, you can find step-by-step instructions in its help center.

Tip: Clearing your cache for the past 24 hours or "All Time" is usually more effective than clearing only the last hour's cache.
