How to Use Disk Cleanup to Clear Cache

An easy way to remove various caches from Windows 11 is to use the built-in Disk Cleanup tool. This tool automatically finds and clears cache files for you.

To use the tool, open the “Start” menu and search for “Disk Cleanup”. Click the tool in the search results.

In the small “Disk Cleanup” window that opens, click the “Drives” drop-down menu and select the drive where you have installed Windows 11. Then click “OK.”

You will see a “Disk Cleanup” window. Here, in the “Files to Delete” section, enable all boxes so all your cache files are removed. Then, at the bottom, click “OK.”

In the prompt that appears, click “Delete Files” to confirm deleting your cache.

And that’s it. The selected cache files are now removed from your PC.
