Clearing your Browser's Cache and Cookies


If a page you are viewing is showing problems, you may need to clear your browser's cache and cookies.

What is the browser's cache and cookies?

Cache. The browser cache is a location where files from the Internet are temporarily stored from places you have recently visited. By storing this information, pages that you visited will load much faster when you visit them again.

Cookies. A cookie is a small file on your computer that saves Internet settings. A cookie is what enables a site to "remember you", and to login to your own account.

First step. If you are having troubles viewing a page, the first thing you should do is clear your browser's cache. That may correct problems with pages that you have changed since you last visited them. The only downside to clearing the cache is that pages may load a bit slower.

Second step. If you are still having problem after clearing the cache, you should next clear cookies. Because cookies are used to remember you on a website without having to log in each time you visit the site, you will need your login and password for every website. For this reason, some browser's allow you to clear only the cookies related to a specific site. We recommend that if you need to clear cookies to correct a problem with RepHunter, that you only clear the RepHunter cookies if your browser provides that feature. If not, then go ahead and clear all cookies.

Because clearing the cache and cookies are similar for most browsers, the instructions to clear each are presented together on this page.

Notes:

  • For all browsers it can several minutes for the cache to be cleared.

  • Removing cookies may also remove your saved settings at other websites. But it is sometimes necessary to correct issues.
