# Delete LocalStorage

Delete LocalStorage removes one key from browser `localStorage`. Use it to clear client-side state before the application reads it again.

* Remove a stale preference or flag before reloading the page.
* Reset known test data set by an earlier [Set LocalStorage](/test-steps/data/set-localstorage.md) step.
* Prefer [Delete All LocalStorage](/test-steps/data/delete-all-localstorage.md) when every key should be cleared.
