How to increase your browser cache

How to increase your browser cache

Modern browsers save downloadable information (Internet pages, multimedia materials, etc.) in the cache on the hard disk of the computer in order to increase its speed, as well as reduce the use of traffic. Accordingly, Internet users with data limitations and / or data exchange speeds often need to increase the maximum browser cache size, especially for online games or watching movies. How to increase the cache in the most popular Internet browsers?

1
In a classic browser Opera (up to 12 version inclusive) Cache size control is available using software settings. To do this, go to the menu - "Settings" - "General Settings ..." or press the combination of Ctrl + F12 on the keyboard.

2
In the settings window, go on top into the "Advanced" tab, then left to the "History" section, and then select the size of the disk cache in the appropriate window. The maximum possible cache size in the opera is 400 MB. To avoid clogging of the system, you can immediately turn on the automatic cleaning of the cache storage when the browser is turned off. At the end, confirm the changes by clicking on "OK".

3
If 400 MB cache is not enough, then you need to go to the settings for advanced users (enter in the address bar "Opera: Config"), where in the "Disk Cache" section, at the very end of the long list of parameters, in the "Size" line manually set Cache size in KB (1 GB \u003d 1048576 KB) and click "Save".

4
Browsers Google Chrome., Yandex.and Opera The latest versions are based on the Chromium engine, so the method of increasing the cache is also common. Press the right mouse button on the browser label and call the "Properties" window. In the tab "Label", you must add the following text through the spacebed to the "Object" string, while not deleting its previous contents: --Disk-cache-dir \u003d "C: \\ googlechromecache" --Disk-Cache-Size \u003d 1073741824

  • C: \\ googlechromecache is an example of a cache storage directory. You can set any location;
  • 1073741824 is a cache size in bytes (1 GB).

5
In a popular browser Mozilla Firefox. Everything is much easier. Go to the settings menu, as shown below.

6
We choose the "Advanced" section above, then the "Network" tab, turn off the automatic control of the cache and indicate the desired size in MB.

7
In browser Internet Explorer. Find the appropriate settings are a bit more complicated. To begin with, press the "service" and open the "Observer Properties".

8
Go to the General tab and click "Parameters" in the "View History" field. After that, another window will open in which you can set the size of the disk space used by the browser for data storage, as well as its placement. After making changes, I confirm them by pressing the "OK" button in this window, and after it closes - and in the previous one.

Thus, you can control the size of the cache in popular browsers among users based on the parameters of your system and the conditions of the Internet tariff.
