How do I clean out my cache?

Question

Windows XP Family

Answer 1

For web browsers like Internet Explorer:
at the top of the browser it says "Tools".
Click Internet Options
Click that and click Delete Files.
You may desire to Delete Cookies too !!
See the first link below from Microsoft

One of the things that I have also done is a tad more complicated, but not by much.:
Tools > Internet Options > Advanced Tab > place a check mark in the box "Empty Temporary Internet Folder when browser is closed"
It's not 100 per cent, but it is a step in the right direction.



The second link below addresses the concern for Netscape.

Answer 2

What cache ?!? The Browsers ??

Do a search on the web for " clean cache", if you are using firefox there is a configuration for it, if you are using IE even if you go to the configuration and ask for a cleanup there will be traces left on the machine, of what you have been doing (but it will clean some space)

Answer 3

If you are referring to the Windows XP temporary files, just go to:

Start > Run

type:

%temp%

Remove all the files there.

Answer 4
