TECH-WHAT ARE WEB CATCHE

A Web cache (or HTTP cache) is an information technology for the temporary storage (caching) of Web documents, such as Web pages, images, and other types of Web multimedia, to reduce server lag.  A Web cache system can refer either to an appliance or to a computer program.

 The browser cache is a slice of hard drive space that's set aside to gather commonly used items accessed through a web browser. These frequency accessed files are stored so that the next time you need that data, the browser can open the files from the hard drive instead of downloading them from the internet.

usernames and passwords will be deleted and you'll need to re-enter them. But on the plus side, your privacy is more secure and your browser will work better.

The more information that is saved in the cache, the slower your computer will be browsing the web.

When you delete the stored cache data, the new version can be  retrieved.
