How can you delete your search history? I don't mean my browsing history, i mean things you have typed in a search bar. For example. When i click "search" on this forum and I press "M", the following show up saying I've searched them: "Medal of Honer", "MASSIVE", "Medal of honor", and "multiple disks".

I want to delete my search history, so does anyone know how to do it? I tried Clearing browsing history first, did nothing but delete the thumbnails in my new tab and be a pain in the ass trying to remember the exact URL of certain sites.

Nope, helped log me out of every site I've ever been on though.

If you are using Firefox, it should be under "tools", then "clear recent history". Select the time span to "everything" and tick the "Form and search history" box.

EDIT: I didn't realise the title of the thread was "Google Chrome Help", I'm a fucking idiot.

Yeah but that's my browsing history, not my search history.

Use Firefox instead.

Firefox is slower and kinda gay. For some reason Firefox would crash or restart every now and then, and it won't let me play certain flashgames. I still use Firefox sometimes as I can clear everything on it after going to certain websites if you know what I mean. But Google Chrome is my priority browser and I like keeping my saved passwords and browsing history.
