How do I clear my browsing history and cache in Chrome?
To clear browsing history and cache in Google Chrome, the process is quite straightforward. First, the user should open Google Chrome on their device. Once the browser is open, they need to locate the three vertical dots in the upper right corner of the window, which represent the menu icon. Clicking this icon will reveal a dropdown menu, from which the user should select "Settings."
In the Settings menu, the user should scroll down and look for a section titled "Privacy and security." Within this section, there is an option labeled "Clear browsing data." Clicking on this will open a new pop-up window. In this window, the user can choose the time range for which they wish to clear data, such as the last hour, last 24 hours, or all time.
The user can then select the types of data they want to clear, including browsing history, download history, cookies, and cached images and files. After making the desired selections, the user should click on the "Clear data" button. This will effectively clear the selected browsing data from Google Chrome. For additional assistance, users may look for relevant information on the current web page.
