When you have finished browsing, the cached pages are stored on your disk drive. To enable quicker access the next time you visit the same page, your web browser uses your computer's memory to store the data of recently visited web pages.Ĭaching those web pages allows you to quickly jump from one web page to another without the need to download that page again. By default, web browsers cache all content such as text, images and other content encountered on the internet.
For example, if you visit a web page, macOS creates a storage area on your hard drive to hold the most recently downloaded con-tent for that site.
These temporary files aim to help your Mac run faster.
