How do I delete autocompletes of File Search?

[Guest]

(Before anything, first I apologize for sticking posts few days ago because I
have sent to the Microsoft, but my product number has OEM and directed me to
"call" the manufacturer, which I prefer not. I simply copied and pasted
exactly what I sent to the Microsft. And thanks to Malke for pointing me
about one-question-at-a-post.)

If you ever had used file search, you might have noticed the autocompletes,
that keeps your search texts. I would simply turn it off at the preference
setting, but I still fear the "naughty security" because anybody can turn it
back on then look at the list. It's just that autocompletes in File Search
are the ones I have no idea how to delete. Please tell me how to DELETE
autocompletes in File Search.

(FYI, File Search is not Internet Explorer Search. For File Search, open
your main drive, then click SEARCH in toolbar.)

Right-click on your Taskbar and select:
Properties > Start Menu > Customize > Clear

Third-party solution:

System Security Suite (3S) is a program designed to remove internet tracks
and junk files from your computer. It allows you to delete Cookies,
clear Internet Explorer Cache, delete index.dat Files, clear Typed URLs,
Windows Temp Folder and much more.

Use CleanCache (free - donation requested) from
http://www.buttuglysoftware.com/. Don't fret about the name. The program is
excellent and can be configured in many dozens of ways to do what you want!
The latest version is 3.2

All versions seem to require Net Framework, which many may not have
installed!

I have been saying for the past three months, the reason for installing .net
continue to grow. Many programs now are based upon this technology.

The biggest, and most popular one that comes to mind is Ghost 9.9 and Ghost
10.
