Go to Options > Privacy & Security > Clear History > Everything (with ALL options selected) > Clear Now It appears to clear the history Go to Options > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data > Clear Data > Check Cached Web Content (27.6 MB) > Clear It appears to clear the cookies and data HOWEVER, the Privacy & Security page still indicates 27.6 MB remain cached as shown in the attached image I do not have any sites listed in Manage Data or Manage Permissions How can I remove this remain 27.6 MB? Thanks in advance for any advice. Cheers HelpaNoob
