About

Update 2.0 :
Added a context menu option, now you can right click on any page and fully refresh it :)

The "Hard Refresh" extension is a handy tool for anyone who wants to quickly force a webpage to reload completely, bypassing the browser's cache, with a single click. It is helpful for troubleshooting, staying up-to-date with the latest content and is especially useful for developers and web designers, and anyone who uses the browser frequently.

it provides a quick and easy way to perform a "hard refresh" (also known as a full refresh or cache bypass - CTRL+F5) on any webpage you're currently viewing.

** for example: when you're browsing instagram explore page, if you clicked normal refresh the same content will load again no matter how many times you refreshed the page.
this extension will help you hard refresh so it load fresh content every time you click on the extension icon.

very light and small extension.
