Unable to find "Hard reload and empty cache" in Microsoft Edge Chromium

Question

I was able to Hard Reload and Empty Cache in the new Microsoft Edge Chromium Browser a few months ago. Recently, I was trying to do that, but I am unable to find the button. I was able to use that button by right-clicking on the refresh button, and a list of options appears. One of the options was "Hard Reload and Empty Cache." Please let me know if there is another way to do it. Or please add an alternative feature to do it in the next update.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

We understand the concern as you are unable to see the Empty cache and hard refresh option in Edge. This options are available as part of developer tool, if you want the options then Press F12 key while you are on Edge and then right click on the Refresh icon next to address bar. However, you can press Ctrl+Shift+R key as well for Hard Refresh.

However, if you want this option to be in the stable build and not in developer tool, you can certainly help us improve the features by sharing your feedback. You can Open Microsoft Edge. Click on the Settings & More Ellipsis (…) on the right hand corner and then, select Help & Feedback and select **Send Feedback.**This is one way where our design team will be able to receive feedback, suggestions and ideas from our customers.
