How to find deleted history on microsoft edge

Here in this passage, we'll offer you three major methods to recover browser/internet history files: use DNS Cache to find deleted browsing history, use data recovery software to recover lost browsing history files or to recover deleted history by using Google history. And all these three methods can be applied for browsing internet history recovery on all browsers such as Chrome, Firefox, IE Edge etc. Let's see how to recover lost or deleted browser internet history now.

Method 1: Use DNS Cache to find and view deleted browsing history

DNS, which is known as Domain Name System, can work as a fast method to restore searches or history for you. But when computer is restarted, it will not be able to help you find browsing history then. DNS cache can only work when almost everything is connected to the internet. Therefore, if you need to restore deleted browsing history for an app or video game, please do not shut down or restart the computer. You may still have a chance to view the deleted internet history:

1. Press Windows + R, type cmd and click OK. Or you can also type cmd in Windows search bar.
2. Open Command Prompt, type ipcongif/displaydns and click Enter.

Then all your recently visited websites will be displayed. You can view all your recent browsing history and find those important websites back.

Method 2: Use data recovery software to recover lost browsing history files

If you don't know where to find your saved computer browsing history, please follow next path to see whether the history files are deleted or not now:

Google Chrome: C:\Users\(username)\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\local storage

Mozilla Firefox: C:\Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\

Internet Explorer: C:\Users\(username)\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\History

If you like to save all browser history in your computer like other files, when you deleted the browsing history from the browser, you'll delete the history files from your computer. You still have a chance to restore the deleted browsing history files by using professional data recovery software.

Here we'd like to recommend you to try EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard which can recover all deleted files including the browsing history data saved in your computer without any obstacles.

I used edge nonstop about 4 months ago, it was my default browser and it was great. I stopped using it for a while because it would not work with some web pages for my work/school. Today I went back on edge to retrieve some links off the browser history...I look and it only goes back to august. Then I come to find out that Microsoft edge deletes history after 90 days. Is there any way to retrieve or view history older than 90 days? Any way at all? If there is not then I am screwed, I had important stuff saved on the history and now I wont be able to ever find it again.

I got to also say, no offense but.. that is a really stupid and pointless feature on Microsofts part. I and many others rely on keeping browser history for this exact reason and many other reasons.

How do I find deleted web history?

The easiest method is to do a system restore. If the internet history was deleted recently, then system restore will recover it. To get system restore up and running you can go to the “start” menu and do a search for system restore which will take you to the feature.

Where is Microsoft Edge history stored?

Edge Searches are stored in the 'History' SQLite database, within the 'keyword_search_terms' table. Associated URL information is stored within the 'urls' table. Edge Session Data is stored in the 'Current Session', 'Current Tabs', 'Last Session' and 'Last Tabs' files.

Can you retrieve deleted browser history?

Chrome stores the browsing history locally on your computer using database files. When these files are deleted manually, they can show up in the Recycle Bin. If deleted from there they might still be recovered using a data recovery tool.

Where do EDGE deleted files go?
