    Hi Lucy,

    To clear the Bing history, you may need to sign in using your Microsoft account. However, It's odd for the option to clear the Bing history to not show up. Can you provide us a screenshot of the page where you are trying to delete the search history? In the meantime, check if you would be able to clear the history through this link.

    We're looking forward to your response.

    I had the same problem. A solution which worked for me (Windows 10):

    1. Type Clear Bing in the bottom left box of screen (Cortana box)
    2. Click Clear Bing History Completly ( blue box above)
    3. On web,  Bing- Search History  click Search History "you're about to delete etc."
    4. On resulting page Clear Your History  click YES

    History should clear (did for me)

    If you don't want Bing search history listed, click OFF on "show my recent searches in Search History".

    Good Luck, KT

    Hi,

    Open a CMD (Admin) Window

    Type or Copy/Paste the following commands into the window > Press Enter

    Rundll32.exe inetcpl.cpl,ClearMyTracksByProcess 255

    Wait for Windows to clear All History

    Rundll32.exe inetcpl.cpl,ClearMyTracksByProcess 8
