Chrome cache hex dumps can be found in /.cache/google-chrome/Profile 1/Cache/Cache_Data
. Unfortunately it is not possible to open the individual cache files with a text editor like Geany. However, the file manager is able to recognize original file formats of the cached content, for example images, pearl scripts etc.
Is there a way to read the content of these hex dumps in clear text or recreate the original file format, for example an image, from the cache dump?
Is xxd
the right tool for this?
