Solution 1

There are two ways.Refer this link

What is the difference between Session.Abandon() and Session.Clear()

It states that:

1) Session.clear()-Removes all keys and values from the session-state collection.

2) Session.Abandon()-Removes all the objects stored in a Session. If you do not call the Abandon method explicitly, the server removes these objects and destroys the session when the session times out.It also raises events like Session_End.

Quote:
Session.Clear can be compared to removing all books from the shelf, while Session.Abandon is more like throwing away the whole shelf.

Hey rohan, try adding the reference from where you coping the contents or put in the quotes, reference needed. especially quotes. I'm afraid it could lead to plagiarism. I have seen it here before. Hope you understand what im trying to say. :)

This is doesn't mean it clears out the session. It still holds a value of " " means empty
