How do I clear IE's cache when running Web Developer Express?

Question

I'm trying to debug some IE-only issues for a site I'm developing. I'm running WDE because there's no Firebug for IE. I want to see whether some changes fix a bug, but no matter what I do, IE never picks up my changes. I've tried all of the following:

• stopping and restarting the debug evnironment
• closing and re-opening WDE
• closing and re-opening IE
• clearing IE's "temporary internet files"
• swearing at Microsoft for building such awful software

Any help? Are there some cached files somewhere on the drive I could clear out?

Answer 1

Have you tried ctrl+f5? It reloads the current page and clears the cache. If even after that your changes don't propagate, the problems in your code.

Answer 2

IE Developer Toolbar has "Clear Browser Cache ..." and "Clear Browser Cache for This Domain ..." menu items.
