kidnormal 6 Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 On my Windows 7 Starter netbook the facility to clean the Google Chrome cache is not shown - whereas this does appear in the program on my Windows XP PC. Since cleaning the Chrome cache is important, is there any way of making Wise Disk Cleaner do this, rather than having to use the Chrome tool?

wisecleaner_admin 1,340 Posted November 10, 2014 Report Share Posted November 10, 2014 Which product of WiseCleaner do you use to clean chrome cache? The version? And can you tell me your chrome version? We test it, both wise care 365 and wise disk cleaner can scan and clean chrome cache files. Link to post Share on other sites

wisecleaner_admin 1,340 Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 Are you sure you have installed Chrome? Generally, if you installed chrome, wise disk cleaner will list it in the item - Surf the Internet. Link to post Share on other sites
kidnormal 6 Posted November 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 Yes - I do have chrome installed. I never use Internet Explorer. Link to post Share on other sites
wisecleaner_admin 1,340 Posted November 18, 2014 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 @kidnormal Did you changed chrome cache folder? Generally, it is in %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Cache Can you find it? 1, Click Start, enter %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default in search box, then press Enter. 2, can you find Cache folder?

kidnormal 6 Posted November 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 The cache was not there. I have re-installed Chrome and Wise Disk Cleaner does not show clean the Chrome cache. Thank you. Link to post Share on other sites
wisecleaner_admin 1,340 Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 Did you or somebody else changed the chrome settings, changed chrome cache folder? Because chrome default cache folder is %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Cache How did you installed chrome, downloaded from official website?

kidnormal 6 Posted November 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 Unfortunately I don't know how the cache disappeared, nor where Chrome was originally downloaded from. Chrome was reinstalled from the official Google site Link to post Share on other sites
wisecleaner_admin 1,340 Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 So strange. Can you help us to do some tests to find the reason? Install CCleaner, right click on Google Chrome, click Analyze, does it find your Chrome cache files? Link to post Share on other sites
garioch7 30 Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 This thread from the CCleaner Forum might explain the issue. Apparently Google Chrome stores its history and stuff in "the cloud", not on the local computer. http://forum.piriform.com/?showtopic=40285 Hope this helps. Have a great day.

wisecleaner_admin 1,340 Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 @Phil Chrome store user's browsing history in the cloud, but not cache files. Link to post Share on other sites
