Windows 10: Something's checking Internet Explorer's typed URL list?

My paranoid me is looking for recently used/opened files to check if someone else was accessing them and almost everytime there's the Internet Explorer inbetween.

I guess it's most likely Windows' normal bootup "data grab" checking routine but I was just wondering and asking for this purpose.

Lovely greetings and thanks in advance.
