Nimigean Horatiu (ID: 0000007be4467b81) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 08/31/2023 Used on brave: - 3 GB cache left after clearing normally from settings. - 600 MB left after clearing with this extension. Opted for Cookies and Fill data to be left untouched. Worked great !

Patrick Williams (ID: 000000124150733f) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 11/09/2022 It's a bit of a hit or miss affair sometimes it clears and other times it seems to do nothing. If google could fix the bug in chrome that causes the delete browsing data via the more tools method to perpetually hang I wouldn't have to rely on a chrome extension to do the same job!!!!!

Maure Dev (ID: 000000f18d1274d2) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 05/12/2021 Exactly what I need for my development browser. Please don't add confirmations, or at least, make them optional. Thank you.
