How to delete browsing data
Table of contents:
If you are concerned about privacy when browsing, in all browsers you have options to keep searches and the pages you have visited anonymous. This is a feature that could not be missing in the new Chromium-powered Edge released by Microsoft.
It is very easy to control the data that we leave in view after using Edge just by deleting the history. But it is also that if we want said history to disappear automatically, we have a possibility to make it possible in a few steps.
Clear history on Edge
With this system, Edge will automatically delete the elements that we want from the browsing history that we leave behind us every time we close the browser . To do this we only have to activate an option within the Edge settings menu.
"We just have to go to the panel Settings of Edge by clicking on the menu with the three points located in the upper right part of the screen (in Windows or macOS) or in Preferences under Microsoft Edge (macOS only) ."
Once inside Settings we must look for the section Privacy, search and servicesthat appears in the list of options on the left side panel."
Of all the options we must mark Delete exploration data within the section Delete exploration data The quick way to get to this point is to type edge://settings/clearBrowsingDataOnClose in the browser bar. "
We will see a list of options on the screen, elements that will be deleted every time we close Microsoft Edge:
- Exploration history
- Download history
- Cookies and other site data
- Cached images and files
- Passwords
- Autofill form data
- Site permissions
To the right of each element there is an activation box that we must move in each of the elements that we want to eliminate automatically with each closure.
The only variation comes in the field of cookies, since when we press we will see a warning box where we also have a button with the text Add>"
In this way we can make that browsing data is deleted from Edge automatically, something that can be extremely interesting above all when we are using a computer shared with other users.
