Problem with deleting internet files/searches?

Question

To free up space and keep our internet running faster, I often delete internet files and searches to keep the internet running faster. (This actually works.) However, some of the searches on the drop-down search (When you type in something to the browser, a name of a site comes down below it) won't delete on my computer. I've deleted history, temp files, cookies, and AutoComplete many times but they won't go away. Anyone have any ideas?

Answer 1

Usually it's software or internet add ons, like Google toolbar that do that. If you have something like that, I'd uninstall it.

Answer 2

if you delete temp files doesn't make your internet connection won't be faster..it will happen the opposite:p. do you know what cookies and temp files are doing?:)...they help you to upload the sites where you've been before....i think first time you should read on internet about this:). but if you want to delete temp files you should make a disk cleanup (START-->ALL FILES-->SYSTEM TOOLS-->DISK CLEANUP)

Answer 3

Hmmm... Well On my computer All I need to do is press the "Delete Files" Button and everything deletes, but I need to restart computer Also need to do it while IE or MF is closed.

Internet Options > General > Delete Files(+Delete all offline files).

Answer 4

go to your recycle bin bring up files and delete the ones you no longer need

Answer 5
