How to Remove Items From Your Favorites Section on a Computer
When you visit a website you can add it to your "Favorites" so Internet Explorer will remember the web address. This means that whenever you want to access this particular site, you just have to find it in your "Favorites" and click it. However, if you add too many websites to your "Favorites" the list can soon become unwieldy. The solution is to remove some of these sites from your "Favorites."
