    Hi, don't know if you fixed your issue but go to your start menu, and then click on the computer tab. Then right click on the big address bar at the top of the window. then hit "delete history". this will remove all your search history from the small taskbar address bar.......Hope this helps...:)

    I'd first like to thank EVERYONE that took the time and helped me. all your information was appreciated,considered and used! You guys are great.

    Antman fixed my problem. =D

    i went into my registry

    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\TypedPaths]

    deleted all the urls
    rebooted and they were gone.

    Thank you so much Antman as well as everyone else who has helped me. You all rock!!! I hope this thread will become handy for someone who is facing the same problem i was.

    i hope you all have wonderful days.

    night. =]

    I'm having some "problems" with getting into the registry.
    Every time I type "reg" and search for it, all it does is: It opens Command Prompt and then as soon as it appears, it closes it Immediately & disappears!!, NO MATTER WHAT I DO!!!
    Am I doing something wrong? & If so, then can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong & how to "fix"/"solve" the problem?
    How was this ("Technique") supposed to work? What are you supposed to do to make this work?
    Do I just "Type 'reg' into the Search Box and Restart" to "clear" the Search History?
    Or is there more to the "story" than just that?
    Anyways, Please Help!

    Hello RandomHelper101, and welcome to Seven Forums.

    You might see if the tutorial below may be able to help with this. OPTION ONE has a .reg file that will do this for you automatically if you like.

    Hope this helps, :)
