If you’re experiencing slow performance, unexpected loading errors, or layout issues when using the InventoryBase web portal, clearing your browser cookies and cache may resolve the problem.

When you browse the web, your browser stores information such as site preferences, images, and temporary data. Over time, this data can become outdated or corrupted, affecting system speed and how pages display.

Why Clearing Cookies Helps

Cookies and cache files are designed to make websites load faster, but they can also slow down performance if they:

  • Store outdated information from previous sessions

  • Become corrupted or conflict with updated web data

  • Retain too much temporary storage over time

Clearing them regularly helps ensure InventoryBase runs smoothly and displays the latest updates correctly.
