Default How to delete address history in explorer windows?


In the address bar in any explorer window, whenever I click on the down
arrow, or start typing in a url or file location, a history of all
previous locations and urls appears. How do I remove this history? Note
that I am not talking about Internet Explorer address history - this is
in a folder window.

I've tried using deleting history using internet explorer and a bunch
of software available on the internet but the address history stubbornly
remains.

Thanks for any help.

The address bar in Windows Explorer is simply a mirror copy of the address
bar in Internet Explorer. Deleting the history in Internet Explorer should
clear the address bar history in both locations.
