Deleting all history from a PC

[mumtolily]

I'm leaving my job today and want to remove all personal data from my work PC.

How do I do it?

Thanks

Bump Please help

to get rid of all your internet - click on tools - then internet options - delete your cookies, temp internet files and history.

If you really want to get rid of everything you need to clear the cache too.

If you have any personal microsoft word or excel files - click on start, programs, windows explorer - go into 'my documents' and any files that you want to delete just right click and delete..

Once you have done ALL of this go to your recycle bin and if you press cntrl A then hit delete on your keyboard it'll all be gone

How do I delete the cache

Is it not delete all offline content in the internet options, delete files option? Something like that, haven't actually looked at dialogue boxes.

You've alraedy done it - cache is another name for temp internet files

Thanks

Is thereanything else needed

I'd just make sure that all your emails are deleted, incl folders - double check that your recycle bin is empty - and just have a look thru anything to see if there is anything that you recognise as yours!

is it pc or mac?

its difficult to do i think anyhow, even though you crashes always leave you stranded the stuff does stay in deep recesses of hard drive..

are you pally w/ IT dept?
