# Clearing your Cache

## Manual Method

You can clean cache by deleting the vrchat folder within **C:\Users\Your Username\AppData\LocalLow\VRChat\vrchat**. AppData is a hidden folder, and you may have to enable visibility of hidden folders in Windows Folder Options. The easiest method to find this folder is by pasting this into your Windows Explorer address bar: 

```
%AppData%\..\LocalLow\VRChat\vrchat
```

In this folder, delete everything but the output log and the custom config.json you may have if you added the particle limiter.

{% hint style="success" %}
**Congratulations you have cleared your cache!**
{% endhint %}

## Automated Method

Press your Windows key and type **cmd** into your Windows Search bar. Right click **Command Prompt** and click **Run as Administrator**. A black command prompt window should pop up. Copy this command with Ctrl-C, and paste it into the window by right-clicking in the window.

```
rmdir /S /Q %AppData%\..\LocalLow\VRChat\vrchat\Cookies && rmdir /S /Q %AppData%\..\LocalLow\VRChat\vrchat\HTTPCache && rmdir /S /Q %AppData%\..\LocalLow\VRChat\vrchat\Unity && rmdir /S /Q %AppData%\..\LocalLow\VRChat\vrchat\VRCHTTPCache && rmdir /S /Q %TEMP%\VRChat && REG DELETE HKCU\Software\VRChat\vrchat /va
```

Confirm by pressing enter, a few files should show up as deleted. You will be asked if you want to delete all keys under the VRChat key, press y for yes and press enter to confirm once again.
