Q&A: Clearing the Google History Bar

Posted in: Web Info, Tips & Tricks

Question: Whenever I do a search in my Google toolbar a list of items automatically drops down showing terms that I’ve searched for in the past. Can you tell me how I can clear that list?  — John T., Dillon

Answer: Yes. Yes I can.

That list of terms you’re referring to is your Google Toolbar search history. And I’ve got wonderful news for you: clearing that search history list is ridiculously easy.

Alright. So first, do you see the Google logo that sits immediately to the left of your Google search box? Click it. You should now be looking at a short list of items. Select “Clear Search History.” Smile. All done.
