What Is DNS Cache?
“DNS cache refers to the temporary storage of information about previous DNS lookups on a machine’s OS or web browser. Keeping a local copy of a DNS lookup allows your OS or browser to quickly retrieve it and thus a website’s URL can be resolved to its corresponding IPĀ much more efficiently. The basic function of different cache types is all more or less the same.” -keycdn.com
Your Google Chrome can accumulate a lot of temporary files over time. These files are a copy of the website you visited.
Your browser will store these files in order for it to load the site faster the next time you visit them. If you own a website and just recently updated it, your Google Chrome will often still load the old version of your website.
These old files need to be cleared. It is very safe to delete these files as this will not affect your browser functionality at all.
