Clearing Browser Cache

New ArchiX updates can sometimes conflict with older browser data (cache and cookies), causing the platform to misbehave.

ArchiX continuously rolls out new features and system updates. Occasionally, older stored browser data (caches and cookies) can conflict with these deployments, causing certain platform functionalities to misbehave.

If you experience unexpected behavior or loading issues, clearing your browser's history data typically resolves the problem. Find the instructions for your specific browser below.

  • Cookies vs. Cache: Clearing your cache simply removes temporary files used to speed up page loading. Deleting cookies has a broader impact and will log you out of your current ArchiX session, resetting your local site preferences (such as language configurations).
