Why Clear Cache and Cookies?
Clearing the cache and cookies from a web browser is an important first-step for almost any troubleshooting for internet browsing.

However, sometimes it can cause a problem when websites are updated and developed as files saved in the cache may conflict with what’s actually coded into the website. Clearing cache and cookies is a way we can be sure that any issues you may come across are actually something wrong with the website, rather than inconsistencies caused by using different browsers.
