Hello,

I'm trying to access website files from my Chrome Cache.
I know the files I'm looking for must be there because it's 2GB big.
All the info I find online doesn't work for my Pixel 5.
Does anyone know how to access the Chrome Cache and save it?
All I'm able to do is Clear the Cache and that's the last thing I need to do.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
 
Cache files aren't user accessible nor user viewable from an interactive standpoint, they're just non-vital, temp files that apps use to process data in the background.
You'll probably be able to see more actual web sites while using the Chrome app itself. Try typing chrome://history into the address bar.

I was hoping there was an app that would allow you to view cached files. When you visit a website a device stores files from that website in the cache so that when you revisit the page you don't have to re-download the data making the page load faster.

But thank you for your reply.
