How do I clear my web browser's cache, cookies, and history?

Why Clear Cache and Cookies?

Clearing your browser's cache and cookies is a crucial first step for most internet browser issues. The cache speeds up page loading, but old files can conflict with updated websites. By clearing them, you ensure any problems you encounter are with the website itself, not your browser's saved data.

Keyboard Shortcut for Most Browsers

For Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Microsoft Edge users, there's a quick keyboard shortcut to clear your cache. While in your browser, simply press Ctrl + Shift + Delete (Windows) or Cmd + Shift + Delete (Mac) simultaneously. This will open the relevant window for clearing your browser data.

Important: After clearing your cache and cookies, make sure to close and restart your browser for the changes to take full effect.
