To clear the cache in Google Chrome, follow these steps:

  1. Open Google Chrome.
  2. Click the Menu icon (three vertical dots) in the upper right corner.
  3. Select History , then click Clear browsing data.
  4. In the dialog box, set the Time range to All time to clear everything.
  5. Check the boxes for Cookies and other site data and Cached images and files. You may also check Browsing history if you want to clear that.
  6. Click Clear data.
  7. Close and restart Chrome to apply the changes.

Alternatively, you can use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Shift + Delete (or Command + Shift + Delete on Mac) to open the Clear browsing data window directly

. For more control, you can go to Settings > Privacy and security > Site Settings > Additional content settings > On-device Site Data and enable the option to delete site data when you close Chrome, which helps prevent caching errors

. This process frees up space, fixes website loading issues, and improves browser performance.
