How can I clear browser cache from chrome?

Using Command Prompt or PowerShell to clear browser cache from Chrome directly isn't a straightforward method because Chrome stores cache files in specific directories on your Windows system, and manual deletion can be complex and risky if you're not careful.

However, if you want to attempt this method, here's a general overview:

1. Close Chrome: Make sure Chrome is completely closed before proceeding.
2. Locate Cache Folder: Chrome's cache files are usually stored in a directory like:

C:\Users\<YourUserName>\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Cache

3. Use Command Prompt or PowerShell: You can open Command Prompt or PowerShell with administrator rights and delete the contents of the cache folder.

For example, in PowerShell, you could run:

Remove-Item -Path "C:\Users\<YourUserName>\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Cache\*" -Recurse -Force

Replace <YourUserName> with your actual Windows username.

Important notes:

Manually clear browser cache Chrome can sometimes cause issues, especially if Chrome is still running.

This method only clears cache files and does not clear cookies or other browsing data.

For safety and simplicity, using Chrome's built-in "Clear browsing data" method is recommended.
