Force clean reload
Hi, I use firefox as main browser for developing and I got problem with its cache.
changes in code are not visible automatically, firefox keeps files in chache. So it happens, that I make some change and it takes long time, when the effect show. I am now compensating it by Test pilot Containers modules, but it is not much comfortable, to have one page loaded 5 times and after any small change trying to refresh all tabs, if some of them will reload propertly.
Also, I know the CTRL+F5 and CTRL+SHIFT+R shortcuts, but it does nothing. It will not do the clean reload, it again takes cached files.
So, any other shortcut/way, how to force a tab to get purely loaded from server?
Thanks :)

Hi, tried, and not working :( Click on clear cache, reload page, still reload stored old version instead of clean load
Also I have found Disable cache while console is open in dev console, but still not working.
I edit some file, reload (console is open), still changes will not take effect immediately, it takes quite an amount of refreshes :(
I would expect Ctrl+F5 should work to override the cache.
Use the built in net console to confirm what's happening.
- try Ctrl+Shift+E before Ctrl+F5
- See MDN Network Monitor https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Tools/Network_Monitor
Hey, Hi, any update on this from official places?
Hard to develope something like this, if I use 2 addons for deleting cache, then CTRL+F5 and still it very often takes like more than 5 reloads till the changes take effect ... especially if you are designing something and you want to preview changes step by step :(
