# Clear files

There are 4 ways to clear files from the cache:

-   Topbar clear cache menu (clear all)
-   Context menu in file tree (left/right-click)
-   Options menu in file list
-   File list update hook

> [!NOTE]
> The file tree clear cache commands on folders are recursive.

## Topbar clear cache menu

This option is admin-only by default. To allow for non-admin users, set user permissions accordingly.

If the menu option does not appear, check for missing Myra credentials and the setting of the feature flags:

-   [Admin only](../Configuration/Typo3Features.html#admin-only)
-   [Production only](../Configuration/Typo3Features.html#production-only)
-   [Domain blacklist](../Configuration/Typo3Features.html#domain-blacklist)

## Context menu in file tree

This will clear all files from the selected directory and all its subdirectories recursively.

## Options menu in file list

This will clear the selected file only.
