How to Clear Browser Cache
When you use a browser, it saves information from websites in the cache and in cookies in order to navigate faster and not have to store the same thing over and over again. However, sometimes the cache prevents some updates from taking effect, or generates loading or formatting errors. Clearing the cache means that the files that the applications store temporarily will be deleted, this does not generate any type of loss of information and in fact it is necessary and recommended to do it frequently, even daily.
Save time: You can set your browser to automatically clear the cache when you close it. Consult your browser's manual.
Save time: install a plugin that quickly deletes the cache with a single button. Ask your local IT consultant if you can install an official plugin.
