Windows 7 Group Policy turns off search history

        Windows 7's powerful search function is quite easy to use, but the trouble is that all search history will appear in the drop-down list box. If you are using a public computer, security is a problem.

In fact, we can use Group Policy to resolve this problem as follows.

in the "Start Search" input box or "Run" box "gpedit.msc", open the "Local Group Policy Editor" window, then click open the "User Configuration → Administrative Templates → Windows Components → Windows Explorer In the right pane, find the "Close the display of recent search entries in the Windows Explorer search box" item, double-click to open the Properties window, select "Enabled" here, confirm it will take effect, and then later The search history will not be saved automatically.

Tip: turn off search history will not show the appropriate search suggestions when searching. In addition, if you need to delete the history in the address bar, just right-click on the address bar and select the "Delete History" command from the shortcut menu to clean it up.
