Google Chrome and Firefox cache in Ubuntu?

Question

can anyone will tell me where I can find the cache used in Google Chrome and Firefox in Ubuntu?

Answer 1

Normally in Ubuntu the cache folder for Firefox is located in:

/home/YOUR_USER_NAME/.mozilla/firefox/YOUR_PROFILE_FOLDER/Cache

YOUR_PROFILE_FOLDER = a_random_string.default ( any folder name which ends in .default, if you are using default profile, separate profile can have different folder names )

Hope it helps.

Google Chrome

• Config path: ~/.config/google-chrome
