Clear Cache History

Since updating Firefod to V58.0.2 my Cache History is no longer being cleared. My settings are shown in the atteched image.

One of my startup tabs is BBC weather for my location. With "Clear Cache History" ticked I should be seeing today's weather, but since updating to 58.0.2 I now see yesterdays weather and I have to refresh the page each time.

Anyone else finding this problem ?

Firefox V 58.0.2 Windows 7

Location of the cache/cache2 folder; Windows: *C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile>\ Mac: ~/Library/Caches/Firefox/Profiles/ Linux: ~/.cache/mozilla/firefox/

Close Firefox. Open your file browser to the above, and remove the folder.

Not to sound like a television comedy, but have you tried turning it off and on again (the setting, that is)? Very occasionally, that helps.
