It's a small win32 utility that I wrote in c++ that erases the IE history, because it stores it in registry. Notice that the last command is regdelete.exe. Set Cookies=C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\CookiesĬ:\bin\regdelete.exe HKEY_CURRENT_USER "Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\TypedURLs" Set IETemp=C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Tempor~1 Set History=C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\History Set DataDir=C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Intern~1 Here is the batch script that deletes all that data from all the off It stores history, cookies and cache all over the place, including registry.
Set DataDir2=C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\Applec~1\Safari Set DataDir=C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Applec~1\Safari Safari also stores cookies, cache and history in two locations - the user's application data directory C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\Safari and user's roaming data directory C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Apple off Set DataDir2=C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\Opera\Opera Set DataDir=C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Opera\Opera Just get rid of both directories and you're off Opera also stores cookies, cache and history in two different locations - the user's application data directory C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Opera\Opera and the user's roaming data directory C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Opera\Opera. You can also delete the whole roaming data directory but I didn't because Firefox stores extensions there, and there are several I use for Browserling.
The for command loops over all profile directories and deletes all the sqlite databases. Set DataDir=C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profilesįor /d %%x in (C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\*) do del /q /s /f %%x\*sqlite To get rid of all the private data, delete the local data directory and delete all sqlite databases from the roaming data off The first is per-user appdata directory C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles and the second place is roaming profile data directory C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles. Mozilla Firefoxįirefox stores cookies, cache and history in two places. The /s flag to rd makes it delete all subdirectories and /q makes rd quiet. The /q flag makes the del command quiet, the /s makes it delete files from all subdirectories, and /f forces it to delete read-only files, too. This simple batch script first deletes all files in %ChromeDir% directory via del command and then deletes the directory itself via rd command. Set ChromeDir=C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data Chrome creates this directory anew if it finds it off The easiest way to get rid of all this data is just to erase everything there. Google ChromeĬhrome stores history, cookies, cache and bookmarks in various databases and directories in the per-user application data directory at C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data. The easiest way to solve it was to run a batch cleanup script after each browser.
The problem was that the browsers had to be reset between consequent uses. I wrote these batch scripts for the Browserling startup that I am doing together with James Halliday.

It also documents how to erase the nasty new flash cookies that are browser-independent.

The tutorial comes with Windows batch scripts for each browser. The tricks in this post work only on Windows operating system but it's not hard to transfer them to other systems. This is going to be a short privacy tutorial on how to clear cache, cookies and history in all five major browsers – Internet Explorer, Chrome, Firefox, Opera, and Safari.
