In “Settings,” from the left sidebar, select “Privacy, Search, and Services.”

On the right pane, in the “Clear Browsing Data” section, click “Choose What to Clear.”

A “Clear Browsing Data” box will open. Here, you’ll see a list of items that you can remove from your browser.

• First, click the “Time Range” drop-down menu and choose the time period for which you want to clear the cache. Then, enable the “Cached Images and Files” option. Feel free to tick-mark other options as well if you want to clear them.
• Lastly, at the bottom of the box, click “Clear Now.”

Without prompts, Edge will clear your cache and any other selected items.

If you’d like Edge to automaticallly delete your cache each time you quit the browser, then on the “Privacy, Search, and Services” page, select “Choose What to Clear Every Time You Close the Browser.”

On the page that opens, enable the items that you want Edge to clear.

And that’s how you get rid of Edge’s cache to fix issues and speed up the browser a bit.
