Why you should delete history
Your browser keeps different tracks of your Internet activity in order to provide a more pleasant computer and surfing experience. But browser history tracks can compromise your privacy and provide an easy way for others to see what websites you visited, what you have been searching, downloading, viewing, etc.
If you do not want to delete history manually using the delete history options available in your browser or you need to delete history permanently, you can use Clear All History. With Clear All History you can shred history files before deleting using U.S. DoD 5220.22-M(E) algorithm. Download Clear All History
