How do I clear my browser's cache (to improve its performance)?

Browsers temporarily store Internet files in a "cache" folder to enable you to quickly access websites you have recently visited. When this folder becomes full, your browser may become significantly slower or it may "crash." We recommend that you clear (or purge) the contents of the cache folder regularly. You can delete the files in this folder manually, or you can follow the directions below to have your browser do it automatically.

  2. Click the General tab at the top of the Internet Options dialog box.
  3. In the Temporary Internet files section of the General tab, click the Delete files button.
  4. A dialog box will appear that says, "Delete all files in the Temporary Internet Files folder?". Click the OK button.
  5. In the History section of the General tab, click the Clear History button.
  6. A dialog box will appear that says, "Delete all files in your History folder?". Click the OK button.
  7. Click OK to leave Internet Options.
  8. Click the Refresh button at the top of the browser (this button is to the right of the Stop button).
