Clearing Browser Cache and Cookies
This document explains where to find instructions on how to clear cache and cookies in most popular web browser versions.
Desktop Web Browsers
Clearing the browser cache prevents you from using old/out-of-date versions of websites and protects your personal information. It also helps running some applications better on your computer by freeing up space.
Note: Make sure you set the Time Range to the "All Time" or "Everything" options when available to clear all data. Please save any unpublished work before proceeding; you will be logged out of all sites and applications and will need to re-authenticate.
