Tips And Guides

A good computer optimization technique everyone should know is how to remove your internet history. This mainly applies for users of Internet Explorer (IE). Users of Firefox have a much easier time clearing out their history.

1. Go To “Start”
2. Click on “Programs”
3. Click on “Accessories”
4. Scroll to the bottom of the window and click on “Windows Explorer”
5. Find My computer, click on it. This should show all of the drives on the computer
6. Find your “C” drive, click on it
7. Click on “Document and Settings”
8. Click on your user name. You may only have 1, and it probably says all users, click on that one.
9. Not all of the folders will open. You have hidden folders you need to unhide.
10. Click on “Tools” at the top of the screen
11. Click on “Folder Options”
12. Click on the “View” tab
13. In the window, find the folder that says “Hidden Files and Folders”
14. Click the radio button next to “Show hidden files and folders”
15. Click apply. You should see more folders and files appear in the screen behind this pop up window.
16. Click OK
17. Click on the folder “Local Settings”
18. Click on the folder “Temporary Internet Files”
19. Find the files you need to erase.

This will help you get rid of those unwanted files, pictures, and whatever else IE is storing from your internet surfing. If you want to completely clear everything, and ensure no one knows what you have looked at and where you have been, check out this internet history eraser.
