How to Make Microsoft Edge Automatically Clear Data

Like every other web browser, Microsoft Edge stores your browsing data to provide a better experience. When you visit websites using Edge, it saves cookies, browsing history, passwords, and other data.

If you’re privacy conscious, you can manually delete the Microsoft Edge data, but what if you use a public or shared computer and don’t want the browsing data saved at all?

While you can’t prevent Microsoft Edge from saving your browsing data unless you use the InPrivate mode, a workaround reduces the hassle of manually deleting the stored data.

How to Make Microsoft Edge Automatically Clear Data

There’s an option in the Microsoft Edge browser that automatically clears cookies and other stored data every time you close the browser. You need to make a few changes to the Settings. Here’s what you need to do.

1. To get started, launch the Microsoft Edge browser on your computer.

2. When the browser opens, click the three dots at the top right corner and select Settings.

Clearing the browsing data from time to time is a great way to stay private. Even if you don’t want Microsoft Edge to automatically clear the browser data, you can manually clear it from the three dots (Edge Menu) > Delete Browsing Data.
