Your browser will save web pages that you have visited in a file on your hard drive in order to increase the speed at which your browser opens that same site again. If you clear your cache, you delete all of those old web pages. That frees up disk space and also makes it difficult for somebody else to see where you have been visiting.

What does clearing your system cache do?

Clearing your system cache removes temporary files and data stored by applications and the operating system. This process can free up storage space, improve system performance, and resolve issues caused by corrupted or outdated cache files. It essentially forces the system to rebuild fresh cache data, which can lead to smoother operation and faster loading times for apps.
