This post guides how to clear the DNS Cache in Windows 8 and 10. By removing the DNS server, all invalid addresses—whether they are out-of-date or have been modified—will be eliminated. It’s also important to keep in mind that emptying the cache is straightforward.
Take these actions:
- Go to the Start option and type Run into the search bar.
- In the Run box, type cmd and click Enter.
- The command window will start. Now, carry out the below command:
Ipconfig /flushdns C: Usersusername
- The command goes through and then returns to the prompt.
- Type the word exit. The window has now been shut.
- The message “cannot end the program as it may still be running” may pop up. You can choose to ignore that.
- To end, simply click the End Now button, which is secure.
On Windows 8 and 10, the DNS cache can be cleared in this manner. Contact our bodHOST specialists if you need any further assistance.
