Clearing Internet History or Browser Cache
When using Internet Browsers, temporary files are stored onto the hard drive of your computer. These files are called cache (or history) and need to be emptied periodically. Storing temporary files on your computer can take up a lot of space and slow down your computer. It can also cause errors authenticating on secure websites.  Clearing out your browsing history allows you to visit the newest version of the website.

Set the Time Range to be All Time in the Clear Browsing Data dialog
