How To Clear Your Browser Cache

When you use a browser, like Google Chrome, it saves some information from websites in its cache and cookies. Clearing them fixes certain problems, like loading or formatting issues on sites. This is useful when new changes are implemented on our system. The new changes need to overwrite the existing cache and therefore it is ideal to clear the cache if certain things don’t work.
If after you cleared the cache, you are still experiencing problems or you would like more information about our block management software then please do contact us via email: support@blocksonline.co.uk or give us a call on 0203 384 3418.

  1. On your browser toolbar, click More (three dots at the top) -> More Tools-> Clear Browsing Data.
