How to Clear Your FiveM Server Cache
Why clear the cache?
The FiveM server generates temporary files (cache) to help load resources faster. However, over time these files may become corrupted or outdated, causing issues. Clearing the cache can fix:
- Scripts not loading correctly.
- Resources updated but still showing the old version.
- Performance issues or unexpected crashes.
1. Stop the server
Before making any changes, make sure your server is stopped. This prevents errors when handling files.
2. Access the server folder
Go to the folder where your FiveM server is installed. You will see several subfolders, including the cache
folder.
3. Delete the contents of the cache folder
Open the cache
folder and delete all its contents.
4. Restart the server
After clearing the cache, start the server again. FiveM will automatically regenerate the necessary temporary files.
Tips
- Do not delete the
cache
folder itself, only its contents. - If you manage multiple servers, repeat the process on each one.
- It is recommended to clear the cache periodically, especially after installing or updating scripts.
