Clear browser cache with a command - czkawka

[Nikolai D.]

Hello,
I was searching for the info how can I clear browser cache / cookies with a single command. A double click would be even better but if i have a command then I can make an exe out of it possibly.
So I have found this tool for the life of me can’t figure out what the command would be:

Anyone any suggestions?
Thx

I don't know anything about that, but I use browsers inside a firejail --private environment.

Doing that makes them appear to be 100% brand new, never run before, so there aren't any cookies saved, ever. When the program is closed, there's no left-over crumbs from the program of any kind remaining.

Firejail --private doesn't allow a program to touch any local storage at all unless you want to pull/push a saved file in/out of the firejail container manually. I also limit the amount of RAM that firefox can have using some firejail constraints and I force my own specific DNS server, regardless of what a browser may desire in their claimed "security". More and more, browsers are ignoring our system settings for DNS and calling it "security". Mozilla and Google do this.

Also, I don’t know why I didn’t take a look at it earlier, maybe because I didn’t want to install anything beforehand and wanted to use a portable tool, and maybe even command line only tool,
But here it goes this seems to me like maybe a simpler option:

Bleachbit was great 10 yrs ago. Since Gnome3 and Gnome4, I've heard of some issues with it. I can only say, "be careful" using it.

I've never used it. Since it is a 3rd party tool, and not part of any browser company, I'd expect browsers to feel free to change how they do and store stuff whenever they like.

Be careful.
