As you visit websites, your browser accumulates cache. This can slow navigation speed and sometimes causes an old version of a web page to load instead of the most current page.
Clearing your browser’s cache can free up space - helping to maximize speed and performance - and ensures that you see the most up-to-date web pages and information.
STACK is regularly updated with enhancements and new features. We recommend clearing your cache on a regular basis to experience the best performance and latest updates.
