Explanation

Browser cache stores previously loaded web content and autofill/credential data to speed up page loading. When a web form displays outdated credentials, it is typically because the browser is pulling stored (cached) data rather than fresh data from the server. Clearing the cache forces the browser to reload current content and clears stale saved credentials. This is the quickest, most targeted first step. Changing the user profile, disabling pop-up blockers, or removing add-ons are unrelated to cached form data and are unlikely to resolve this issue.
