Clearing the browser cache in Internet Explorer

Internet Explorer often saves or caches copies of frequently visited pages. This is one way the browser can speed up your Internet experience. However, this caching can cause issues if it saves a bad version of a page. Learning to clear the browser cache helps remove these pages and forces your browser to get the latest version of a page, which can clear up some basic Internet issues.

1.

Open Internet Explorer.

2.

Go to Tools > Internet Options.

The Internet Options dialog box opens.

3.

In the General tab, in Browsing history, select Delete.
