Browser is caching AngularJS views when used with ASP .NET MVC4 & IIS6

I'm using AngularJS on client side and ASP .NET MVC4 as a framework. Application is hosted on IIS6. Unfortunately after each release I get feedback that some pages don't work. I turned out that AngularJS requests for views, eg.

/AppName/Home/Index

are returning 304 status code (I have no idea why...) and browser is using old template. Only hard refresh (ctrl + f5) helps.

Is there a way to configure IIS6 or ASP .NET MVC4 or change web.config in order to prevent browser from caching the views?

Try to mark actions for views that you dont want to cache with OutputCache attribute like this:

 [OutputCache(NoStore = true, Duration = 0, VaryByParam = "None")]

It will disable MVC lavel cache. After that browser can still keep some cache. To prevent this try to use something like this.
