    Windows 10 Timeline Activity

    Windows 10 Version 1803 Build 17134.112.

    I am having an issue with Windows 10 timeline. Deleted activity but it just greyed it out with no way of removing it. I
    have disabled Timeline and have cleared all Activity History but it remains. The only way to not see the file, is to turn off
    Show Activities from Accounts. Any suggestions would be helpful in removing greyed out file.

    Timeline Activity not showing up

    The timeline activity just won't show up on the timeline window. I always get "Use your PC more for activities."

    I have enabled the settings required for timeline in Privacy > Activity History:

    Let Windows collect my activities

    Let Windows Sync my activities

    Show activities from accounts

    I also tried using regedit to add these variables in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System

    • EnableActivityFeed
    • PublishUserActivities
    • UploadUserActivities
    All the variables are set to 1, and are DWORD values. (as stated in this article http://www.thewindowsclub.com/timeline-feature-not-working-windows), to no effect.

    Any more troubleshooting steps I can go through?

    Greyed out files on Windows 10 timeline can't be removed

    Hi,

    I've got a number of previously opened files in my Windows 10 timeline that are greyed out and can't be removed. Also, no new activity is shown. Clearing history/activity and enabling/disabling the feature does not resolve the problem.

    Is there a way to reset the timeline or activity history, other than through the settings? Where is the cache stored?

    HW: Surface Pro 4 (i5/8GB/250GB)

    OS: Windows 10 (Version 1803 / Build 17134.1)

    Cheers

    /
