Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my webpage keep reloading automatically?
Webpage constant reloading can be caused by corrupted cache files, problematic browser extensions, outdated browser versions, or network connectivity issues. The most common cause is browser cache corruption.
Will clearing cache delete my saved passwords?
No, clearing cache won’t delete saved passwords. However, clearing cookies might log you out of websites. If you reset browser settings completely, you may need to re-enter passwords.
Which browsers are affected by this issue?
This issue commonly affects Chromium-based browsers including Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Brave, Vivaldi, and Opera. The solutions mentioned work for all these browsers.
How often should I clear my browser cache?
It’s recommended to clear browser cache weekly or bi-weekly for optimal performance. You can also set up automatic cache clearing in browser settings.
What if the problem persists after trying all solutions?
If the issue continues, try using a different browser temporarily, check if the website works on other devices, or contact the website’s support team as the problem might be on their server side.
Can malware cause constant webpage reloading?
Yes, malware or malicious browser extensions can cause websites to reload continuously. Run a full system scan with updated antivirus software if other solutions don’t work.
Is it safe to reset browser settings?
Yes, resetting browser settings is safe and won’t harm your computer. However, it will remove all customizations, extensions, and log you out of all accounts.
Why does the problem occur only in one browser?
Different browsers have separate cache storage, extensions, and settings. If a problem occurs in only one browser, it’s likely related to that specific browser’s configuration or corrupted data.
Can I prevent this problem from happening again?
Yes, you can prevent this by regularly maintaining your browser, keeping it updated, being selective with extensions, and clearing cache periodically.
What’s the difference between cache and cookies?
Cache stores website files (images, scripts) for faster loading, while cookies store small data pieces like login information and preferences. Both can cause reloading issues when corrupted.
