How Do You Delete a Search?

Internet Explorer saves all data during a browsing session, such as websites, cookies and any searches you perform in a search engine. If you are using a public computer or looking at sensitive information, you may not want any searches you have performed to show up for the next user. You can delete your search history, as well as any other information, directly from Internet Explorer.

Instructions

1. Open Internet Explorer.

2. Click "Safety" in the upper-right corner. Click "Delete Browsing History" from the pop-up menu.

3. Click the box next to "Form Data" to delete any saved search entries that have been entered into any search engine. If you wish to delete any other search history, such as websites viewed, click the boxes next to "Temporary Internet Files," "Cookies" and "History."

4. Click "OK." The search history will be automatically deleted.
