Clearing cache, cookies, and browsing history can help resolve Google Chrome performance issues.
When you visit a page, Google Chrome will store some information from the site in cache and cookies.
With cache, you can quickly access sites you’ve visited before and load them quickly. Also with the presence of stored cookies, you can visit the site without logging in. And every time you visit a web page, Google Chrome will record it in the history.
And the more you visit, the more data will be stored. Under certain conditions, you will experience problems with Chrome, such as slow performance, broken site display, and so on. Clearing cache, cookies, and history can solve many problems.
If you don’t want Google Chrome to store all that information, you can use Chrome in private browsing mode (Incognito).
