 * I recently updated a page on my site but 3 different browsers are still showing
   a cached version of that page. I tried a full refresh (F5) and even CCleaner 
   but Firefox and IE are still not showing the updates. Chrome did show the updated
   version for a while but when I opened the page again just now it had gone back
   to the cached version. I don’t have any caching plugins installed.

 * did you clear your browser’s cache as well, F5 just refreshes the page but the
   browser still loads the cached version

 * Yes, I did that within the browser settings as well as using CCleaner.

 * try closing the browser program altogether and reopening it, sometimes they can
   get stuck…

 * Tried that. It’s been 2 days already. I opened the page on another computer and
   it’s the same there too. I even deleted images from the server using FTP and 
   they’re still showing up on the page.

 * Maybe it’s not a browser cache issue after all (and it’s hard to see how it could
   be after everything I’ve done). I uploaded my site to [this](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/weird-browser-cache-issue/browsershots.com?output_format=md)
   website and none of the browser shots were showing the updated version of the
   page.

 * I was going through the files and folders on WordPress installation just now 
   and in wp-content found a “cache” folder. So, after deleting that everything 
   was back to normal.
    I must have installed the WP Super Cache plugin at some 
   stage although I don’t remember doing that and the folder was left behind after
   uninstalling the plugin.

 * glad to see it’s sorted, thanks for leaving a quick note on how you did it so
   hopefully that can help anyone else who stumbles on to this thread.
