    My account is automatically logged in on the browser therefore I don't have to do it every time. I checked if any other devices were logged into my Google account but found nothing. I tried to find some solutions online and met other people with the same problem; even our search histories which we didn't do were about the same topic. I tried signing out of additional accounts, resetting the password, and stuff, could it be that there is some virus or malware on my pc that's doing this? And those were searched when my PC was off I wasn't present for a few days so I don't think any virus cou

    IE11 Google Toolbar no auto search suggestions, no search history?

    Since the last Win 10 update my Google Toolbar won't list any search suggestions as I type and there is no search history listed. The Google tool bar will allow a search, but after a few searches no search history shows and no "clear search" button is listed either.

    I have turnd on "Suggest searches as you type", and "store search histroy on my computer" in the Google Toolbar options.

    Any suggestions to fix this?

  3. Edge Search Does Not Permit Change of Region


    I got these suggestions from the Microsoft Community forum.No. 1 worked for me:

    Thank you for posting the query on Microsoft Community. I am glad to assist you on this.
    We have reproduce the issue here and we are able to access non-regional search for google using Microsoft Edge.
    I would suggest you to try the below steps and check if it helps.
    Step 1:
    Clear browsing data option of Microsoft Edge and check if you face the issue. To do so perform the steps below.

    1. Click on the More actions icon next to the feedback icon present on top right corner of the Project Spartan homepage.
    2. Select Settings and click on Choose what to clear.
    3. Check the boxes Browsing history, Cookies and saved website data and Cached data and files and click on Clear.
    Step 2:
    I suggest you to create a new user account and check if the issue occurs.

    1. Go to Settings.
    2. Choose Accounts and then select Family and other users.
    3. Select add someone else on this PC.
    4. Enter a user name and hit next.
    5. Click on Finish.
    6. Sign out from the current Account and Log into the new account.
    Step 3:
    It could also happen because of network issue. I suggest you to try with different network connection and check if it helps.

    Shared Youtube and google account.

    I share my Youtube account with my friend. This account is connected with my google account. So for example when i change the google search page background,my friend can see that background. Also he can see my email address which i use for that account. So i'm curious can he also see my browsing history and other sites i'm logged into? Or is that just something that browser stores on my PC and can't bee seen by my friend?
