How to clear Edge browser data?

Answer

Regularly clearing data in the Microsoft Edge browser helps maintain high program performance, free up disk space, and protect the privacy of personal information. Over time, accumulated cache files, saved cookies, and browsing history can slow down page loading.

The fastest way to bring up the data clearing menu is by using the classic keyboard shortcut by simultaneously pressing the Ctrl, Shift, and Delete keys. A compact dialog box will appear on the screen, allowing you to immediately start deleting unnecessary information.

An alternative path through the graphical interface involves going to the main browser menu via the three-dot icon, from which you need to open settings and select the section responsible for privacy, search, and services. In this section, you should find the item that prompts you to select elements for deletion.

In the opened list, you can manually check the categories of data you want to get rid of, including browsing history, cookies, cached images, and form autofill data. Be sure to specify the time range, such as deleting for the last hour or for all time of the profile's existence, and then confirm the operation with the clear button.
