Welcome back, tech enthusiasts. Today we're going to cover clearing your browser cache on a Mac with Safari and Chrome. I'm your host, Greg Doig. If you're ready, let's go. First up will be Safari. Open Safari. Next, go to Settings, then select Advanced. Then you're going to toggle on show features for web developers. Then in the menu bar, click Develop. Then you're going to click Empty Caches. And next is Chrome. First up, we're going to use a shortcut. Press Command plus Shift plus Delete. Then you're going to choose a time range from inside the box there. Then you're going to check cached images and files. Then you're going to click Clear Data. And if you're still facing storage constraints, navigate to the Apple menu. Go to System Settings, then General, and then Storage, and review the largest categories that are being shown there. And get rid of the things that you don't need. So clearing Cache can resolve glitches, but for optimal speed, sufficient storage space and the latest updates are also critical. And once again, thank you for listening and come back soon for more tech tips.
