[Troubleshooting](https://kb.systemology.com/help-center/troubleshooting?hsLang=en) # How to Clear Your Browser's Cache and Cookies (Desktop/Laptop) ## Learn how to clear your browser cache and cookies to resolve loading issues, broken buttons, or outdated content, ensuring systemHUB runs smoothly. ### **๐Ÿงน Why Clear Your Cache and Cookies?** Your browser stores bits of pages (the cache) and small login files (cookies) to load sites faster. Now and then these get out of date and cause odd behaviour, such as a page half-loading, buttons not working, or you seeing an old version of something. Clearing them gives you a fresh copy. > โš ๏ธ **Heads up:** Clearing cookies will log you out of most sites, so have your passwords handy. You will log back into systemHUB afterwards. --- ### **โšก The Quick Shortcut (Works in Most Browsers)** Press **Ctrl** + **Shift** + **Delete** (Windows) or **Command** + **Shift** + **Delete** (Mac). This opens the clear-data window in Chrome, Edge, and Firefox. Set the time range to **All time**, tick **Cached images and files** and **Cookies**, then clear. --- ### **๐ŸŒ Google Chrome** 1. Click the **three-dot menu** (top right) -\> **Delete browsing data**. 2. Set **Time range** to **All time**. 3. Tick **Cookies and other site data** and **Cached images and files**. 4. Click **Delete data**. 5. Close and reopen Chrome, then log back into systemHUB. --- ### **๐ŸŒŠ Microsoft Edge** 1. Click the **three-dot menu** (top right) -\> **Settings** -\> **Privacy, search, and services**. 2. Under **Clear browsing data**, click **Choose what to clear**. 3. Set **Time range** to **All time**. 4. Tick **Cookies and other site data** and **Cached images and files**. 5. Click **Clear now**, then reopen Edge. --- ### **๐Ÿงญ Safari (Mac)** 1. Click **Safari** (top menu) -\> **Settings** -\> **Privacy**. 2. Click **Manage Website Data** -\> **Remove All** (this clears cookies). 3. To clear the cache, turn on the Develop menu first: **Safari** -\> **Settings** -\> **Advanced** -\> tick **Show features for web developers**. 4. Then click **Develop** (top menu) -\> **Empty Caches**. 5. Restart Safari and log back in. --- ### **๐ŸฆŠ Mozilla Firefox** 1. Click the **menu** (three lines, top right) -\> **Settings** -\> **Privacy & Security**. 2. Scroll to **Cookies and Site Data** -\> click **Clear Data**. 3. Tick both boxes and click **Clear**. 4. Restart Firefox and log back in. --- ### **โ“ Still Stuck?** If clearing the cache does not help, try opening systemHUB in a private / incognito window (which ignores the cache entirely). If it works there, the cache was the issue. If it still fails, contact support with a screenshot or short video. --- ### **๐ŸŽ‰ You're All Set!** Your browser is now fresh and ready to go.
