### Introduction

Sometimes when working with the new Alumio updates, you may face the problem of looking for the released features and can’t find them. This is usually caused by a problem with your browser cache that doesn’t let you view new updates from the Dashboard.

Navigate _the User profile icon → User preferences page_ to follow the topic.

### The “Reload Dashboard” option

To be able to refresh the dashboard in one click without the assistance of your browser, you need to perform the flow described below:

Step 1: Click on the User profile icon at the bottom left corner of the Dashboard.  
Step 2: A popup will expand to you with such generic settings as:

```
* will show you as a user;
* **the “User preferences” option;**
* the “Log out” option;
* and display all available environments to which you have access.

```

Step 3: To proceed, you should click on the “User preferences” option.

Step 4: Then you’ll be redirected to the User preferences page, where 2 available functionalities are present:

- Cookie consent, described in [this topic](https://forum.alumio.com/t/cookies-consent/516);
- Reload the dashboard.

Step 5: At the right corner of **the “Reload dashboard” option** you’ll see **the “Reload dashboard” button.** Once you click on it, the cache will be automatically cleaned and all new updates become available.

Besides that, after reloading the dashboard, Alumio displays the current dashboard version. To view this option, follow the path:

Step 1: Go to _System → Info._  
Step 2: View the first record in _the “Environment” tab._

**Note:** If reloading the Dashboard via the system settings doesn’t work, use [this guide](https://support.helpdocs.io/article/CmkE83ebCz-clearing-a-cache-in-your-browser#what_is_caching) on how to refresh the cache.
