Clear the Browser Cache on a Chromebook

Overview

You should consider clearing your browser cache to fix website loading and formatting issues, speed up browsing by removing outdated files that cause slowdowns, and free up storage space on your device. Clearing the cache forces your browser to load the most current version of a website instead of using old files that may be corrupted or outdated.  

Step by Step Guide

1. On your computer, open Chrome.
2. At the top right, click More.
3. Click More tools > Clear browsing data.
4. At the top, choose a time range. To delete everything, select All time.
5. Next to "Cookies and other site data" and "Cached images and files," check the boxes.
6. Click Clear data.
