I'm using Microsoft Edge and Bing. Despite clearing as much of my browser history as I can, multiple times, there's still autofill results based on my search history.
Whenever I try to search something up in the search bar some random piece of my search history always has to pop up and it bothers me, is there anyway to delete it? I'm using a child's/family account and that has some restrictions. I don't know if it's because of that or if I just don't know how to clear it. It allows me to clear my browsing history.
I can think of two solutions (which you might not like):
- Use another browser than Edge or don't used Bing.
- Don't use a Microsoft account, which is where your data is stored.
See the article How to Revert Your Windows 10 Account to a Local One.
While you are about it, you might also disable the biggest threat to your privacy : Cortana (See this article). Point 2 above will also block Cortana.
As another remark, third-party apps are always safe : If you don't use Windows 10 apps for browsing, search and mail, no history is kept.
Open your start menu -> Settings -> Privacy -> Feedback & Diagnostics -> And set "Diagnostic and usage data" to basic
