Symptom

I’ve installed a new version of the MettleCI Workbench but when my browser still seems to be showing me the old version.

Solution

Your browser may be caching an old version of the Workbench application which need to be flushed before the updated functionality becomes available: You can do this by force refreshing your browser. Instructions on how to do this for various browsers are provided below.

Google Chrome

On Windows and Linux, use one of the following:

Hold the Ctrl key and press the F5 key.
Hold the ⇧ Shift key and press the F5 key.
Hold the Ctrl key and press the R key.
Hold the ⇧ Shift key and press the R key.
Hold the Ctrl key and click the Reload button on the navigation toolbar.
Hold the ⇧ Shift key and click the Reload button on the navigation toolbar.

On macOS:

Hold both the ⌘ Cmd and ⇧ Shift keys and press the R key.
Hold the ⇧ Shift key and click the Reload button on the navigation toolbar.
Hold the Ctrl key and click the Reload button on the navigation toolbar.

Microsoft Edge

On Windows:

Hold the Ctrl key and press the F5 key. Note, when running on Windows, Ctrl+F5 forces reload from network, not cache.

On macOS:

Not currently documented, but believed to be: Hold the Option key and click the Reload button on the navigation toolbar.

Internet Explorer

Use one of the following:

Hold the Ctrl key and press the F5 key.
Hold the Ctrl key and click the "Refresh" button on the toolbar.
