 What is Browser cache?
To speed access to pages you have already visited, your browser often keeps a copy of the page. If you re-visit a page that your browser has a copy of, it will be loaded from the local copy, therefore making the page display much faster. Your browser keeps copies of pages that you visit in Browser cache.
Is Browser cache useful?
Storing Browser cache files makes youe Internet browsing faster as it usually takes your computer less time to display a web page when it can take some web page's elements or even the entire page from Browser Cache (also known as Temporary Internet Files).
Why you should clear browser cache
Storing Internet cache on a hard disk is normally not a problem, unless you have been entering or viewing personal information you don't want others see.
So although storing Internet cache files makes web browsing faster as it usually takes your computer less time to display a web page when it can open page's elements or even the entire page from Browser cache files, Browser cache can threat to your privacy because everyone who has access to your computer can see some personal information by simply opening the cache folder. Anyone can see what videos you've watched, what pictures you've seen, where you've been online and more.
The only way to be sure that none could see yourl sensitive information is to clear browser cache. You can clear browser cache automatically or using special software.
Also clearing browser cache will free up some space on your computer.
