Unable To Delete Search History

Anonymous

I'm running the latest version of Edge on an iMac and Surface laptop. From Bing.com, I click the option to Manage Your Search History. This loads the Search history page and I'll click the delete button to remove an entry. When I click the entry and click the Clear button, I get prompted to Sign into your MS account, so I click the Validate button. I enter my credentials which then brings me back to the search history page. Normally I would just click on the delete bin icon to remove the entry, but now I'm getting prompted to log in again. I click the Validate button and the page refreshes, but if I try to delete an entry, I just get the Sign into your MS account all over again. I click the Validate button, the page refreshes, etc. rinse and repeat.

    Thanks for your reply. I’m aware of the option you posted about the dashboard. The method I was using used to work but now it doesn’t. What’s changed?

    We will continue to pay attention to this issue, I recommended that you provide feedback in bing.com.

    Dear Chris Panny,

    Good to see you in Microsoft Community.

    After testing, when deleting the history, it will ask you to verify the MS account. After clicking the verification, the page will be refreshed and the search history will not be deleted.

    But you can click "Go to Dashboard", log into your MS account, and delete your search history.

    If there is anything not clear, please do not hesitate to let me know.

    Best regards,

    Bob8 | Microsoft Community Support Specialist.
