Clear the Client Cache
Depending on your client machine configuration, a copy of all the Web pages displayed during a session are automatically stored on the local hard drive. This is called the client cache. These files are normally deleted after a time period determined in a history setting for Internet Explorer.
After installing a new build, new client files are generated and served to the client machines. Under normal operating conditions, you do not need to manually clear the client cache each time a new release is installed.
There are, however, times when you do need to manually clear the client cache, especially when initially setting up a environment. These are when:
• The menu system is modified and rebuilt.
• A browse is attached to or detached from a field.
• During initial system configuration, for testing and troubleshooting purposes.
Use the following instructions to manually clear a client machine cache:
1 Start Internet Explorer on the client machine.
2 Choose Tools|Internet Options and click the General tab.
3 Click the Delete Files button in the Temporary Internet Files section.
