How to Clear Java and Flash cache

Clear Java Cache

Clearing the Java Plug-in cache forces the browser to load the latest versions of web pages and programs, and ensures that all traces of your ISP given IP is removed.
Be sure to also use CCleaner to clear all kinds of cache and trackable data.

 To clear the Java Plug-in cache:
  1. Click Start > Control Panel.
  2. Double-click the Java icon in the control panel.
    The Java Control Panel appears.

  1. Click Settings under Temporary Internet Files.
    The Temporary Files Settings dialog box appears.

  1. Click Delete Files.
    The Delete Temporary Files dialog box appears.

    Note: If you want to delete a specific application and applet from the cache,

Clear Adobe Flash Cache


Much like Java, forces the browser to load the latest versions of webpages and programs,
and ensures that all traces of your ISP given IP is removed.


1. To get started, simply visit this page. This will take you to the Settings Manager for the Flash Player.
It should also take you directly to the Website Storage Settings section.
If it doesn’t, simply click the Website Storage Settings button (see screenshot on the right)
to bring that section up. Towards the bottom of that window, you’ll see a section with a list
of all the sites that have left some piece of Flash on your computer.


2. We want to delete all of the sites that Flash has saved – click the Delete all sites button.

3. You’ll be prompted to confirm this action. Click Confirm.
4. And now your computer is free of the history of sites that you have visted with Flash content.
That’s it! It is of course important to note that the next time you visit a site that you had
previously deleted, it will re-appear in you Flash history list.
