Use the Clear button at the bottom of the "Find files or folders" dialog. Then click "Actions | Save settings now".

Re: Clear search history on exit
if you don't want things saved on exit, you can disable the relevant option (TOOLS > OPTIONS)

Thank you for the reply.nikos wrote: 2022 Feb 20, 16:51 if you don't want things saved on exit, you can disable the relevant option (TOOLS > OPTIONS)
You misunderstood my words.
1.I want to things saved on exit.
2.But I do not want to save search history.
So,I suggest to set a option to clear history on exit like some Internet browser...
Now
Clear button at the bottom of the "Find files or folders" dialog. Then click "Actions | Save settings now".
can work.(Thank Robert2).
But I hope a option to do this.
Thank you for watching.

So,it will add the option to clear history on exit??
Because it can do by some steps(ctrl+f -> clear history -> Actions | Save settings now -> exit),
Why not let it become the option? without doing those steps usually?
Thank you for watching.

Re: Clear search history on exit
can you explain to me the need to clear history on exit? is it a business constraint or something?
because now I see it as a pointless fetish

So I hope to clear any history.
Maybe it is pointless fetish to you,
but it is not to me.
Thanks for understanding.

the CLEAR button in find dialog doesn't clear the history, it's the one in OPTIONS dialog that you need

Now it became two topic:
1. May I possibly suggest to add a OPTION that Clear search history on exit?
2.Use the Clear button at the bottom of the "Find files or folders" dialog. Then click "Actions | Save settings now".
Sometime it will Insist on keeping one history.
