Hi

I'm having problems deleting my google chrome history. Even though I click everything and tell it to delete from the beginning of time, it won't delete. I've also tried CC Cleaner.

Any suggestions please?

Thanks.

    CCleaner will clear Chrome history. What makes you think it hasn't? An alternative for future use is to browse in incognito mode - Press Ctrl, Alt, N to enter the mode. Then no history is saved.

    I think it hasn't because when I start to type something in address bar, it comes up with the things I'd searched or looked at before.

    Thanks for tip for future.

    Go to "settings".

    Click "Advanced setings"

    Uncheck box "Use a prediction service to help complete searches and URLs typed in the address bar".
