Trick to clear cache Dropbox, OneDrive and Google Drive

Cloud storage services like Dropbox, OneDrive and Google Drive are quite useful, allowing users to store all their important data on the cloud and directly access the cloud without having to Install any software or program.

However, in the course of use, if you store too much data you will be "out" of storage space. You can then think of a solution to remove cache memory to free up space.

To clear cache on Dropbox, OneDrive and Google Drive, please refer to the following article of Network Administrator.

1. Dropbox

To clear cache on Dropbox, follow the steps below:

1. First copy % HOMEPATH% Dropbox.dropbox.cache .

2. Next open Start Menu or Run command window (press Windows + R key combination) then paste the command you just copied and press Enter.

3. A new window will appear on the screen. There are many different files stored there, if you want to quickly delete these files, the fastest way is to press Ctrl + A to select all files, then use the key combination Shift + Delete to delete all these files.

4. If Windows reports that some of the files you are using cannot be deleted. In that case, open Disk Cleanup (cleanmgr.exe), then select the Thumbnails option and delete it.

When you open the Dropbox cache folder to check, you will see that everything has been erased.

2. OneDrive

With Microsoft services, the process of clearing the cache will be a little more complicated, especially if you want to clear the cache to fix sync problems. OneDrive does not have a specific directory for storing files.

To clear the cache on OneDrive, follow the steps below:

1. Stop all your Office processes (groove.exe is OneDrive).

2. Copy and paste the link below into the address bar on Start Menu or Windows Explorer:

C: Users% username% AppDataLocalMicrosoftOfficeSpw

And delete all files there.

3. Next copy to paste the link below into the address bar on Start Menu or Windows Explorer:

C: Users% username% AppDataLocalMicrosoftOffice15.0OfficeFileCache

And also delete files there.

3. Google Drive

To clear the cache on Google Drive, follow the steps below:

1. The first is to clear Google's cache. To do this, press Ctrl + Shift + Del to open the Clear browsing data window.

Alternatively, click the 3 dash line icon in the top right corner of the screen and then select More tools => Clear browsing data.

On the Clear browsing data window, select Cached images and files , then click Clear browsing data to complete the process.

2. If you have trouble synchronizing files on Google Drive, you just need to exit Google Drive, then proceed to move some files on the Google Drive folder to another location, restart the computer and check if the files are synchronized.
