    Hello, to delete the Windows 11 Explorer history:

    Open File Explorer.
    Click on the three dots → Options.
    In the General tab, go to the Privacy section.
    Click "Clear" to delete the Explorer history.

    You can also delete search history by clicking on the search bar and then "Clear search history."

      Hello,

      Why repeat what has already been said, especially when it is not accurate?

      It says nothing, the history of the explorer, because there are several.

      The only truly complete solution in one pass is the script proposed in the link in <2>.
