How to Clear Cache from Chrome
Cache are the small data files that are downloaded into your
device when you visit any website from your device. These are the temporary
internet files which your browser downloads in the form of website images,
data, and documents so that this information can be retrieved for next visit to
the same website for faster viewing.
Once this local copy of website information is downloaded your browser
will be able to load some data from each page you have visited without downloading
that information again from the website. It will help in loading webpage
faster.
Some of your browser’s annoying problems can be fixed merely
by clearing the cache. It is a quite simple and effective solution. In Google
Chrome browser, you can clear cached images and files, and also you can delete
other forms of data like browser history, saved password, Autofill form data,
etc. Removing these things may result in slower loading of websites for the
first time; otherwise, there will not be any side effect of this.

Clearing browser cache helps in speeding up your device. But
this will slow down the loading of websites for the first time. You need to
sign in again into the sites you're already signed in. In some browser you can
configure browser’s settings to clear cache & cookies on exiting from the
browser.
