Clear your cache
Posted July 4, 2018 to Web.
Clearing cache is a great maintenance tool. While it is recommended that you clear your browsing history every now and then for a number of reasons today we are focusing on 'Cache'. Cache is a collection of temporary files such as app data which will allow the computer to recall data based on past browsing history. While most times this is a good thing when you want to see a new or updated web page you want to pull the most recent version, not the version your computer remembered. To ensure you only clear out the old useless temporary files we recommend you use the steps outlined below.
