Important
The extension formerly known as Clear Cache for Current Tab is now Clear Data for Current Site! This new version adds configurable data types, live operation progress, and an automatic page reload after clearing.
This extension clears browser data for the current site only.
Unlike most data clearing extensions, this one targets the site in the current tab. This is particularly useful when developing and testing a web app. With this extension, clearing the browser data no longer affects your experience on other websites.
To use it, click the extension icon or press Ctrl+Shift+Y on Windows and Linux or Command+Shift+Y on macOS.
To choose what gets cleared, open the extension options page and select the data types you want to clear. Your choices are saved and used every time you run the extension.
To open the options, right-click the extension icon and select Options.
This is the full list of items that the extension clears:
- Browser cache
- Cache Storage
- Cookies
- File systems
- IndexedDB
- Local storage
- Service workers
- Open the Chrome Web Store and search for Clear Data for Current Site.
- Open the extension listing and select Add to Chrome.
- Select Add extension when Chrome asks for confirmation.
- To keep the extension visible, open the Extensions menu in the Chrome toolbar and pin it.
