How to go to history. Last views on this computer

You can view your history of web pages you've visited in any browser. Is no exception Internet Explorer. Moreover, the Internet browser allows you not only to view the magazine, but also to sort them by date of visit, order and other characteristics. First, let's look at how to view the Internet Explorer log.

Where is the visit log located?

There are several ways to view the history of web pages that a user has visited. First, launch the browser. In versions 8 and higher, we will need to select the View menu section. It is located in the upper left corner of the Internet browser. In this section, open the Panel and click Journal in the list that opens.

Another method is no less simple. In the right corner of the browser, select Service. It may also be indicated by an asterisk. In the menu that appears, click Panel – Journal. After this, the user is presented with a history of visits to web resources. By default, they are listed by the date you viewed the sites. You can open the magazine in Internet Explorer using the hotkeys Ctrl, shift and H. You will find a complete list of hot keys with their functional purpose here.

Search visited sites

In the journal, you can sort pages by date (this is the default), by node, and by visiting order. So, to see what resources you were on today, click, respectively, Today. In addition, by clicking on the Yesterday or Last Week links, you will open a list of the sites you viewed on those dates.

In order to start searching, first open the Journal. In it, go to View by date and open the search log. In Internet Explorer 8, this line may appear as a search in the log. Now we enter either the full or partial name of the site in the search field. We wait a few seconds and the results appear in front of us. You can go to the desired resource by clicking on its name.

Deleting a log

Not every user wants to leave a list of the pages he visited in the browser. In this case, you will need to know how to delete your visit log. This procedure is as simple as possible in all versions of the Internet browser from Microsoft.

You can delete your history partially, within a certain period of time. In this case, you will need to open the Journal, select the period that you want to delete, for example, Today and right-click. In the list of actions that opens, click Delete. The same can be done if you need to delete just one resource. In this case, we highlight only its name.

You can completely clear the history in Internet Explorer by clicking Tools. In it we find and click on the lines Delete browser history. The same action is done using command line. To do this, select Security. In the section, click Delete browser or browser history. In addition, you can use hotkeys by simultaneously pressing Ctrl, shift and Del. The window that appears will allow you to clear the entire history when you click on the delete button.

It should be noted that you can use incognito mode when visiting sites; in this case, deleting your browsing history will not be necessary. In Internet Explorer it is called private browsing. The developers also provided the ability to restore the last session at the next start in the event of an unscheduled shutdown. As you can see, the browser has quite a lot of functions designed for the convenience of users, but if you still don’t like it, then you can always. Therefore, if you have been to a site but have forgotten its address, you can always access the history in Internet Explorer. Moreover, it will be quite easy to find a resource if you use sorting according to some principle.

Browser history - confidential information each user, which you don’t have to record if you turn on the “Incognito” mode, record it in order to remember which sites you visited, and also erase it if more than one person uses the computer and the main user does not want others to see the search history.

But there are situations when the user himself needs to look at the history that he deleted - in order to restore events of a certain period, to remember on which site he saw important information or for other purposes. There may be many reasons for restoration and deletion, but the most important thing is that without complete cleaning system and without deleting the entire account from the computer, no information is deleted without a trace; if necessary, you can get everything back if you try and use additional programs and extensions.

How to restore browser history

If you have erased your browser history with important information about the sites you visited, don’t panic, because you can restore the list of pages you viewed both on your computer and on your phone, no matter what browser you use.

Don't want to constantly enter your password on Windows 10? Read our instructions with popular ways to disable the login password.

Note! If you need to ensure that the history cannot be restored or viewed, you need to use hidden mode in the browser or delete the cache using special programs.

Using cookies and cache

With these methods, the history will not be restored to its previous extent, but if you just need to see which sites were visited from this device and when, then this is the easiest way.

To view cookies in Google Chrome need to do:


This menu will contain information about when the user visited a particular site, in a list.

In addition, if you haven’t cleared the cache for a long time, it’s easy to view the history through it. Each browser has its own link to cached files that are stored until cleared. Here is a list of links for the most popular browsers:

  • Google Chrome: chrome://cache/
  • Mozilla Firefox: about:cache?device=disk
  • Opera: opera:cache

It is important to know! This method will only work if you did not delete cookies and cache when you cleared your browser history.

With Handy Recovery utility

Handy Recovery utility is a program for personal computer, which allows you to see what was deleted from the system. Explorer works in a similar way, but it only shows the files and folders that are currently on the computer. Easy to install and can be used for viewing deleted files in every existing browser.

To recover deleted data using the utility, you must:


Using cloud technologies

For Google browser Chrome, which you use through Google account, it is easy to restore the history in any case. To view the history of this browser via cloud technologies, need to:

  • Open Settings.
  • Log in to your browser if you are not logged in.
  • After - select “ Additional settings synchronization".

If you use this method, you can find history up to 2.5 months ago.

Using a system restore point

System restore is a rollback to a previous version of the software. However, you must have a restore point that is suitable in date and time in order to view necessary files. If the history was deleted a long time ago, then it may not exist.

In order to roll back the system to previous version, need to:

  • Find the User Data folder through Explorer or Windows search.
  • Right-click on the folder, then select the item that allows you to return to the previous version.
  • Afterwards, view your browser history and find the information you need.

Recover browser history on mobile or tablet

There are fewer options for successfully restoring history in the browser on your phone, but you can view visited pages in the cache. You can access the cache from your phone in the same way as you can access the cache from your computer; links to the cache for each browser are in the paragraph above.

Also, if you use the same browser on your phone and on your computer or laptop, and if you logged into both versions of the browser under the same account(Google or Yandex account, registered by email), then the history from both devices is pulled up. And, having deleted the history on your phone, you can resume it through your computer using one of the methods suggested in the article above. This will show which sites the user accessed from a phone or tablet, and which from a computer or laptop.

If none of the methods work, try manually searching for visited sites. Enter the query you entered when you were looking for the information you need and see which sites have blue text and which ones have purple text. Sites with purple lettering were previously open. The method takes a lot of time, however, if you remember exactly how the request was formulated, you can easily find the desired site.

Note! The site will be highlighted in purple only if you did not select the “Forget about this site” option when clearing the history. Then the browser deletes all information about visiting the resource and in the search page it is highlighted as one that has not been visited.

Good day.

It turns out that not all users know that by default any browser remembers the history of the pages you visit. And even if several weeks, or maybe months, have passed, by opening the browser log, you can find the treasured page (unless, of course, you cleared your browsing history...).

In general, this option is quite useful: you can find a previously visited site (if you forgot to add it to your favorites), or see what other users sitting at this PC are interested in. In this short article I want to show how you can view your history in popular browsers, as well as how to quickly and easily clear it. So…

How to view your browsing history in your browser...

In most browsers, to open your website history, just press the button combination: Ctrl+Shift+H or Ctrl+H.

Google Chrome

In Chrome on the right top corner window there is a “list button”, when clicked, a context menu opens: in it you need to select the “History“ item. By the way, the so-called shortcut keys are also supported: Ctrl+H (see Fig. 1).

Rice. 1 Google Chrome

The history itself is a regular list of Internet page addresses, which are sorted depending on the date of visit. It is quite easy to find sites that you visited, for example, yesterday (see Fig. 2).

Rice. 2 History in Chrome

Firefox

The second most popular browser (after Chrome) at the beginning of 2015. To enter the journal, you can press the quick buttons (Ctrl+Shift+H), or you can open the “Journal” menu and from context menu select " Show entire log«.

By the way, if you don't have top menu(file, edit, view, log...) - just press the left “ALT” button on your keyboard (see Fig. 3).

Rice. 3 Opening a log in Firefox

By the way, in my opinion, Firefox has the most convenient visiting library: you can select links from yesterday, from the last 7 days, or from the last month. Very convenient when searching!

Rice. 4 Visit Library in Firefox

Opera

IN Opera browser viewing the history is very simple: click on the icon of the same name in the upper left corner and select “History” from the context menu (by the way, shortcut keys Ctrl+H are also supported).

Rice. 5 View history in Opera

Yandex browser

The Yandex browser is very similar to Chrome, so almost everything is the same here: click on the “list” icon in the upper right corner of the screen and select “ History/History Manager"(or simply press the Ctrl+H buttons, see Fig. 6).

Rice. 6 Viewing your visit history in the Yandex browser

Internet Explorer

Well latest browser, which I couldn’t just not include in the review. To view the history in it, just click on the “star” icon on the toolbar: then a side menu should appear in which you simply select the “Journal” section.

By the way, in my opinion, it’s not entirely logical to hide your visit history under the “star”, which most users associate with favorites...

Rice. 7 Internet Explorer…

How to clear history in all browsers at once

You can, of course, manually delete everything from your history if you don't want anyone to be able to view your history. Or you can simply use special utilities that will clear the entire history in all browsers in a matter of seconds (sometimes minutes)!

One of the most popular programs For Windows cleaning from "garbage". It also allows you to clean the registry from erroneous entries, remove programs that in the usual way are not deleted, etc.

Using the utility is very simple: launch the utility, click the analysis button, then check the boxes where necessary and click the clear button (by the way, browser history is Internet History).

Rice. 8 CCleaner - cleaning history.

IN this review I couldn’t help but mention another utility that sometimes shows more top scores for disk cleaning - Wise Disk Cleaner.

Alternative to CCleaner. Allows you not only to clean the disk from various types of junk files, but also perform defragmentation (will be useful for speed work hard disk if you haven’t done it for a very long time).

Using the utility is just as simple (besides, it supports the Russian language) - first you need to click the analysis button, then agree with the cleaning points that the program has assigned, and then click the cleanup button.

That's all for me, good luck everyone!

Hello! Agree, it’s a useful thing. You can view the browsing history of any user, unless, of course, it has already been deleted and you have the appropriate access. Where is it located in the browser?

Many have already noticed that in some other Internet browsers you can open the menu and find an item called “history”. In the case under consideration, the situation is somewhat different, but there is nothing complicated either.

Today I’ll tell you where the history is in Internet Explorer and how to delete it. The example below will be based on its 11th version.

View the log in Internet Explorer

To be honest, I didn’t find it right away. Then I figured it out. The solution turned out to be elementary. I'll show you where it is stored for a certain period of time. To do this you need to follow 3 simple steps:

  • open browser;
  • select the favorites menu through the icon that looks like a star;
  • In the window that appears, go to the “log” tab and look at the history.

For clarity, I have prepared a screenshot for you.

The most interesting thing is that before preparing the picture, I went to the Internet browser and discovered that there was no historical data there. Can you guess why? In fact, I was surprised at first, but then I remembered that it is deleted when the program is closed. Next I’ll show you how you can enable and disable this functionality.

History deletion sequence

We looked at where it is stored and now we will look at how to clean it. To do this, we will need to open a window with the option to delete the review history. I'll show you two quick ways to do this.
First, open the program parameters and then there are 2 options to choose from:

  • Select “browser properties”, then the “general” tab and click the “delete” button.
  • Select “Security” and “Delete Browsing History”.

See what it looks like for the first case.

The arrow shows the very possibility that I mentioned above - deleting the log when exiting.

I like the second case better, as it seems faster. It is shown below.

After one of the options is made, a service window will appear.

Here, at the user's discretion, you can select one or more items. I usually select everything and press “delete”.
