CCleaner - Home

allows to select what you want to delete...cookies, temp files, cache, etc. Can edit start up programs and can also scan for bad/useless registry errors.

I love it...sure there are ways to do it without third party software but i'm a fanboy of this lol

In Google Chrome, click the wrench tool in the upper right corner, then click Clear browsing data. Empty the cache is an option there.

Seconded. I don't even bother manually doing it...CCleaner is way easier.

Yeah, I didn't know how to do it in GC until I looked today haha. CCleaner is a lot easier, it clears all of your files at once (no more separate programs).

I know you said you wanted to clear your cache without clearing the rest of your internet files, you can do this in CCleaner (For GC too, not just IE).
