How to clear the cache, cookies, and browsing history in Firefox

To help users strengthen their privacy online, we now provide a guide on how users can clear their caches, browsing history, and cookies stored by the most popular web browsers. We'll start with Mozilla Firefox.

CACHE

1. In your browser window, click on the icon of the three horizontal lines arranged on top of one another. (The icon should be near the top right corner of your display.)
2. Click 'Preferences.'

3. Select the 'Advanced' panel.

4. In the Network tab, click 'Clear Now' under the Cached Web Content section.
Close the tab. The changes will save automatically.

Browsing History

1. In your browser window, click on the icon of the three horizontal lines arranged on top of one another.
2. Click 'History.'
3. Select "Clear Recent History....'

4. Using the "Time range to clear" and "Details" options, select how much history stored by Firefox and what types of information you'd like to delete.

5. Click the 'Clear Now' button and close your browser window.

That's all you need to do to erase your browsing history
