My browser history won't delete, why?

How can i get to delete my browser history if my internet options button won't work?

  • Answer:

    Control panel, internet options. I have went to start and used the search before, just type in cookies it will pull them up . You can delete the temporary internet files & cookies a few at a time or just the ones you want.

use the history icon in your standard buttons bar. when you click on it the history pops up on the side of the monitor you can delete from there the history icon is the green and grey circle thing probably next to your printer or favorites button.

depends on what windows you using for xp and 2000 pro it's in the temp folder inside your profile. just go in and delete all of the temp folders. C:\Documents and Settings\(your user login)\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files you'll need to type that in inorder to get to it. it's a hidden folder. delete them and your good to go

there is another way to do it with out useing your browser. Go on your desktop and click on MY COMPUTER and click on the Local Disk now look for a folder that say Documents and Settings and click that and the next step is look for another folder that may have your name on it or one that may say another name..but don't click on the ALL USER or the Default User.. Only one that has another name. Now once you see that other folder click on it and go in side. You will see one that say Local Settings go in there next. You may not se the history folder in there but only two other folders that may say Temp and Application data and to get the other folder to show up you will need to go uptop and click on the tools. Now it should say folder options. The next step is click the tab that say view. look down the list and you will see one that says Hide protected operating system files (Recommended) unclick that just for a second and press appy then ok..you should now see you history folder and you can remove what ever you like in there. But so to make it eayer for you CREAT a short cut of that folder and copy and past it to your desktop. Now one you got that done..do the same thing what i wrote here and go back to the area again and click protected operating system files (Recommended) again and then apply and ok..so you hide it like it was in the start. It will hide that folder of your history in your local setting folder. Now you can shut down the window and you will have a copy of your history shortcut on your deaktop. This is the best way if your browser doesn't work.. I will you luck
