Can't Delete History In Internet Explorer

Sep 22, 2012

I go to tools, delete forms, history, and the rest, and there are about 20 websites in history that keep showing up when I go type a web address. I've tried CWShredder (says it doesn't exist on my computer). I've tried Spybot (which I did first) (showed coolwebsearch when it did a scan, then supposedly deleted it). I've tried Malware anti-bytes. I tried to try Stopzilla and Spyware Doctor, but they make you pay for it.

How can I possibly delete the history/ urls that keep showing up?

Import Internet Explorer History From XP

Jul 27, 2009

I just installed Windows 7 yesterday (with your help) and I am loving it so far, but there seems to be one problem I cant seem to figure out, I need to import my Internet Explorer history from my XP HDD to my 7 HDD. I first tried to copy the index.dat file, but there are just so many that I cant figure out which one needs to be moved/replaced. And now I cant even seem to find my "History.IE5" folder in XP, anybody have a tutorial or any advice?

Internet Explorer 9 Does Not Save History Past 2-3 Weeks

Aug 30, 2012

I've had this problem for years, since first upgrading to Internet Explorer 9 and Windows 7.

After 2-3 weeks, Internet Explorer starts randomly choosing to disclude sites from its history, before reaching a point where it simply stops recording history. Yes, I HAVE all the settings properly adjusted so that it does not delete history upon exit, has an entire gigabyte of disk space reserved just for history, 400 days set to keep history, and it still ends up being a bi-monthly thing of me having to delete the history.

I've gone through countless sites and forums looking for answers, History function not working in Internet Explorer 8 - Microsoft Answers Why has history not been working in IE 9 for the last few days? - Microsoft Answers IE 9 is not saving my browsing history. - Microsoft Answers

NOTHING works for me, not deleting index.dat and such.

Remember Start Run History, But Not Program History

Nov 3, 2009

Is there a way to have start->run history kept while not keeping a history of the recently launched programs from the menu?

I know under the properties you have "Store and display recently opened programs in the Start menu", but this is what controls both.

I'm figuring theres probably some registry entry that will let me control them individually.

Cannot Delete File - Used By Windows Explorer

Nov 16, 2012

So I have a few very small files that I want to delete but when I try, it says "used by Windows Explorer." But I know I run Command Prompt, but when I type in the file name, it says, it cannot be found. The harder problem is that I don't think Command Prompt recognizes the name...it's:

dddrkknghtrsssss72bd.dago (1) - Copy and
dddrkknghtrsssss72bd.dago (1)

Which is why I cannot delete them through Command Prompt...I deleted others no problem as they have "regular" names...

Explorer.exe Crash When Trying To Delete Network Location

Feb 27, 2012

Okay so I just tried to add a new network location in the My Computer.

I set the network address as \MYLAPTOP but the program didn't let me do that because I need to specify a folder. I don't want to specify a folder because I just want to use the root folder. So I then typed it as \MYLAPTOP\ with an extra slash at the end. The shortcut was made but it didn't work so I tried to remove it.

Now every time I press "delete" on the shortcut Explorer.exe crashes and restarts. I tried this in safe mode with and without internet access but it always crashed.

Now I'm just looking for a way to manually delete the icon through registry or some other editor.

Windows Explorer Doesn't Refresh After Copy / Rename / New Or Delete

Jan 29, 2012

Usually, when you create/rename/delete a file/folder in the directory in Windows Explorer, it will add/renamed/remove automatically without refreshing.However, I have this issue where if you do any of the above, it doesn't refresh until you press F5. I tried to see if its a driver issue by booting into Safe Mode but it didn't work in there.
