Hi, I just started to learn Phaser, I was following many tutorials, got many errors, and learnt a lot I think.  
But I face a very strange problem now.

I can change the size of my game, the background color, and many other things, but the background image never change, even after deleting it from the “assets” folder.  
I tried to use my images first, nothing, then I tried with images from another tutorial and it was working!

So now I want to change this images again, so I replace again everything, and delete the images from the tutorial… But they are still here, even after restarted the server ! I have no Idea what is happening, it makes me want to give up Phaser…

Thank you in advance !

Try clearing your browsing data and then refresh (ctrl + shift + del for chrome). Sometimes browser just uses data from cache. Also your image location could be incorrect.

It is very annoying, but it works like this !  
Is there any way to not save anything in the cache while I try to build my game…?

On your browser dev tools, network tab you can disable the cache
