Learn How To View and Delete Your Browser History And Other History In Microsoft Edge (Easy Way)

Microsoft Edge, like other web browsers, stores various data in its cache, including documents, CSS styles, JavaScript, photos, and other media information. Sometimes, clearing this cache can be a useful troubleshooting step when experiencing issues with a website.

When you clear your browser's cache, you will see the updates that have been made to a webpage for the first time. This is especially important if you are working on a website and making changes to it. If your browser uses cached data instead of updated parts of the web page, you may encounter difficulties such as an old website appearing or even the website crashing/not loading.
