Hello All,
Using the Chrome browser, I recently downloaded a file from my personal web site and decided to update it. I did the update and then uploaded it. When I downloaded it again, it hadn't changed.
I refreshed the download page and downloaded the document again. Same story. I then switched to Microsoft Edge and again downloaded the file. This time, I got the revised file.
I suspected that Chrome was retrieving the file from cache. I decided to purge the cache and see what happened.
Purging the cache solved the problem. Edge would have behaved as Chrome did in how it handles cache.
I uploaded a Word document explaining the process with screenshots.
