Checking the History On Your Windows Computer
Checking the history on your Windows computer is a useful way to track what you’ve been doing. Whether you need to keep track of changes to a file, recall an online search you made, or see which sites you have visited, you can get the information you need by accessing your computer’s history.
Viewing Your Internet History
Internet Explorer, the Windows computer’s default web browser, stores your visited webpages in its history folder. To view this history:
- Open Internet Explorer by double-clicking the shortcut icon on your desktop.
- Click the blue “Tools" button near the top right of the screen.
- Click “Internet Options" in the drop down menu.
- On the General tab, look underneath the “Browsing history" section near the middle of the screen.
- Click the “View files" link to open a Windows folder showing all the websites you have visited.
Viewing File History
If you need to review changes you made to a file or a folder, you can consult its historical record. To view the file history:
- Open Windows Explorer.
- Navigate to the file or folder you want to review.
- Right-click the file or folder icon.
- Choose “Properties" from the available options in the contextual menu.
- Click the “Previous Versions" tab.
- Review the file versions listed, being sure to note the “Date modified" values.
