How to Clear Your Browser Cache

If you're using Vizlib products, you will find you need to clear your web browser history and/or cache from time to time. If you're moving from a Free Plan version of the product to a Subscription plan, or if you install a new version of your current product(s), clearing your cache ensures you are using them correctly. We've included instructions in this article for a range of web browsers.

Internet Explorer


Note: Vizlib does not support Internet Explorer 


Vizlib decided to end support for Internet Explorer 11 (IE11) from August 1 2021, following the Qlik Sense announcement that IE11 support would not continue after their May 2021 release. 

You can continue to use IE11 with earlier versions of most Vizlib extensions (see note), but it will not be supported for any new features or bug fixes. 


Please note: Vizlib Toolbar, Vizlib Tiles, Vizlib Waterfall and Vizlib Ridgeline Plot are not IE11 compatible.


Please contact Vizlib Support if you have any further questions.
