Clearing InfoPath Cache

Megan Jackson

There may come a time where you need to clear your InfoPath cache in order to view the latest version of your form template. When you’re loading an InfoPath form from SharePoint the form template is downloaded and cached locally on your computer. If you upgrade your form template on the server, the local client client doesn’t always necessarily use the latest upgrade, but instead, it uses the local cached copy.

Here are three simple steps to clear your InfoPath cache:

  1. Search for “Run” on your computer or simple press Command + R
  2. This will bring up the Run box
  3. Type in: “Infopath /cache clearall” and press OK

BAM! You have now cleared your InfoPath cache! This is such a useful trick to know if you’re constantly updating your form template.
