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 solve this problem, as follows.

Enter "gpedit.msc" in the "Start Search" box or "Run" box to open the "Local Group Policy Editor" window, and then open "User Configuration → Administrative Templates → Windows Components → Windows Resource Management" 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: When you close your search history, you won't see the search suggestions when you search. 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.
