Delete Windows Explorer History

When you double-click to open up a file, picture or folder using Windows Explorer, Windows is also secretly keeping a record of this action. It then stores this record in a hidden location deep in your registry.

But just because its hidden, does not mean it cannot be found. Armed with the proper programs or just a little bit of computer knowledge, this file can easily be accessed. And whoever finds it will be able to see every picture, file, online video and more that you’ve ever opened!

To remedy this potential invasion of your privacy, PC Confidential makes it easy to locate and destroy this search.

Simply open PC Confidential and:

---

1. Press button labeled Delete My Temporary Files (on the left hand side of the screen)
2. Then check the box marked Scan Windows Explorer History
3. Press Scan Now and this history will be scanned.
4. Once your Windows Explorer History scan is complete, a Privacy Report will appear with your results.
5. To delete, press Delete All

After you press Scan Now, you’ll notice a scrolling list in the My Results section. This is a list of everything that is being scanned (in this case, the results could include recent documents list, Windows temporary files, Recycle Bin contents, file search history and Windows Explorer History). Once the scan is complete, you will also see a total number of scanned results.
