Google Chrome: Remove Browser History, Cache, and Cookies
If you’re privacy-conscious or like to maintain data integrity, clearing away old browsing data is a good practice to follow on a regular basis. Chrome does a great job at storing your browsing history, cache, and cookies to make browsing the web better.
Accessing content that you previously visited becomes easy when websites cache it before sending it to your browser. Websites store cookies on your hard drive to collect information about preferences and logins. If you don’t use private browsing mode, all sites you visit are recorded in your browser history.
Chrome uses an automatic cookie-clearing feature, but for history and cache clearing, you have to do it manually. If you have never done this before, the process is simple, but to be precise, follow these steps.
When your browser is malfunctioning, clearing browser cookies and cache might be necessary.
