Internet question? ...When you go the address link at the top of the page?

Answer 1

you need to go to the internet options and clear history.
you cant delete one by one its either all or none.

Answer 2

Hi,
You need to use an advanced method to only delete certain ones.

1) Firstly delete them from your history (or clear all your history) by pressing CTRL+H and deleting the ones you dont want.


2) Here comes the advanced bit! This will get rid of URLS you have TYPED into the address bar:

i) Go to Start>Run and type regedit
ii) Navigate the window tat appears and go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER and press + to expand that folder.
iii)then go to Software and expand
iv)then go to Microsoft and expand
v)then go to Internet Explorer and expand
vi) then go to Typed URLS and click on that fodler.
vii)The right hand will show typed urls, click on the world that correspond to the URL you want to delete (e.g. url3) and press delete on you keyboard (not backspace)
The item has not been permanetly removed.

***Be very, very careful when using Regedit***

3) If you never want to have address bar keep a list of URLs then:
i) Go to Tools>Internet Options
ii) Click the Contents tb
iii) Click the Autocomplete button
iv) Untick the Web addresses tickbox.

Answer 3

I assume you mean deleting individul entries from the address bar at the top which stores your TYPED entries, this can be altered in the registry. you should ONLY do this if your confident with altering registry entries with regedit. click start then run - type regedit and click ok go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER/software/microsoft/InternetExplorer/TypedURLs here you will see a list of the URLs in your address bar shown as a small flag with ab written on it and next to that url1 to however many typed urls you have and the address. right click on the number of the address you want rid of and click delete in the box that appears.
Once again be very careful as a wrong deletion may render your computer unusable or cause problems in other areas.

Answer 4

Go to tools at the top of the page then click on Internet options at the bottom then you should have a box come up. then you need to click on Clear history which is at the bottom of the box.

Answer 5

Yes, you can delete the sites you want from the list you've visited. Do the following steps:
CLICK ON: My Computer -->> History -->> View
You can delete the sites one by one. Best of luck!

Answer 6

I don't think you can selectively delete sites visited, but go to Tools, Options, General, Browsing History Settings, and change History to ONE DAY. By tomorrow they will all be gone.

Answer 7

Clear history in the internet options in tools!!

Answer 8

I don't think you can get rid of specific ones, but you can get rid of all of them by going to tools > internet options > content > autocomplete > clear forms.
