How Do I Delete Search History on Microsoft Account?

Published in Microsoft Account Privacy 1 min read

To delete your Microsoft account search history, you'll need to clear it from both the device you are using and your Microsoft Privacy dashboard. Here's how:

Clearing Search History on the Device

  1. Go to the Search History page: (This step assumes you are referring to search history within a specific Microsoft application like Bing, or a Windows search function. The exact method to access this will depend on the specific application or tool).
  2. Find the "Change history settings" section.
  3. Click "Clear all." This will delete any search history stored locally on that device.

Clearing Search History on the Microsoft Privacy Dashboard

  1. Go to the Microsoft Privacy Dashboard.
  2. Sign in with your Microsoft account credentials.
  3. Find the "Clear search history" section. You may need to navigate through activity history or a similar section.
  4. Click "Clear search history" and then confirm by clicking "Clear."

By completing both sets of steps, you'll ensure your search history is removed from your device and your Microsoft account.
