Cát Tiên |

Each click leaves a digital impression. Deleting your web browsing history properly helps protect privacy and keep personal data safe.

In the digital age, the internet has become an indispensable tool for learning, working and entertainment. However, few people notice that all online activities such as searching, accessing websites or downloading files are automatically saved by the browser.

Your browsing history, cookies, and cache can help users access information faster, but there are also potential privacy risks, especially when using shared devices or public computers.

Regularly removing your web browsing history not only helps keep personal information secure but also contributes to improving device performance.

Here is a detailed guide on how to delete history on the most popular browsers today.

How to delete history on Google Chrome

Google Chrome stores access history, downloaded files, cookies, and website data. To delete this information, users just need to open Chrome, click on the three- stop icon in the upper right corner, select "History", then select "Delease web browser data".

Here, you can choose the time frame to delete, from one hour ago to your entire history, then confirm data collection.

How to delete history on Mozilla Firefox

Firefox allows detailed control of each type of data. After opening the browser, users click the menu button, select "History", then click "Delease recent history".

You can choose to delete your browsing history, download history, cookies or website data before confirming completion.

How to delete history on Microsoft Edge

For Microsoft Edge, the operation is similar. Users open Edge, click on the three- phuck icon, select "History", then select "Delease".

In the " Select what to Delete" section, you determine the data type and time frame, then click Delete to complete.

How to delete history on Safari

Safari users can delete history through the menu bar. Just open Safari, select History, select Delease History, select the appropriate time frame, and confirm the operation. This process will simultaneously delete cookies and related data.

How to delete history on Opera

In Opera, users click on the clock icon in the sideline to open the history, select "Delease web browser data", then determine the time and type of data to be deleted.

Experts recommend that periodically deleting browser data helps reduce the risk of online tracking, protect personal information and keep the device stable.

In particular, for those who regularly use public computers or sharing devices, this is a habit that should not be ignored.
