You can clean the cache of VMware virtual machines by following these methods:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Reboot the virtual machine: shut down the virtual machine and start it again to clear the cache in the memory.<\/li>\n
  2. Delete temporary files: Regularly clean up temporary files and cache files in the virtual machine. You can open the Disk Cleanup tool by running the command “cleanmgr”, choose the types of files to be cleaned, and then click “OK” to clean them up.<\/li>\n
  3. Clearing browser cache: If a browser is running on a virtual machine, you can clear the cache in the browser settings. For example, in Chrome browser, you can click on the menu button, select “More tools,” and then choose “Clear browsing data” to clean the cache.<\/li>\n
  4. Improve virtual machine performance: Use virtual machine management tools like VMware Tools to optimize the virtual machine. These tools can automatically clean up the virtual machine’s cache, log files, etc.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Please be aware that clearing the cache may cause a reduction in the performance of the virtual machine as it may require the virtual machine to reload some data. Therefore, it is advisable to back up important data before clearing the cache and ensuring that the performance of the virtual machine is acceptable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
