How do I clear my DNS Cache?

Assuming you are using a windows computer, clearing the DNS cache is quite an easy job. To do it, follow these simple steps:

  • Click "Start" button, choose "Run…", type in "cmd" and press "Enter".
  • A black window will open with a blinking cursor. Type in ipconfig /flushdns and press "Enter". After you press "Enter" the screen will stay as it is for a few seconds and will then pop back a message saying "Successfully Flushed the DNS Resolver Cache". Once you see this message your DNS cache has been refreshed.
