Your privacy matters! If you use Zen Browser and want to keep your browsing history and cookies clean, you’re in the right place. You can set it up so that everything gets deleted automatically when you close the browser. No more manual clearing, no more worries!

Why Delete History and Cookies?

Before we dive into the how, let’s look at the why:

  • Privacy: No one can snoop on your browsing habits.
  • Security: Prevent tracking and avoid saved login sessions on public computers.
  • Performance: A clean browser runs faster with fewer stored files.

Setting Up Zen Browser to Delete History on Exit

Luckily, Zen Browser gives you an easy way to clear your history automatically. Follow these steps to set it up:

  1. Open Zen Browser: Click on the browser icon and launch it.
  2. Go to Settings: Look for the menu button (usually three dots or lines) and select Settings.
  3. Find Privacy Options: Scroll down or find the Privacy & Security section in the settings.
  4. Enable Auto-Clear: Look for an option like Clear browsing data on exit and turn it on.
  5. Choose What to Delete: The browser may ask you what to remove:
    • Browsing history
    • Cookies and site data
    • Cache
    • Passwords (optional)
  6. Save and Exit: Once you’ve selected your preferences, close the settings.

Extra Steps for Maximum Privacy

Want even more control? Here are a few extra settings to consider:

  • Incognito Mode: Use private browsing mode so no history or cookies are saved at all.
  • Disable Cookies: Some sites won’t work, but it’s great for privacy.
  • Use a VPN: For an extra layer of security while browsing.

What Happens After You Enable Auto-Deletion?

Once you’ve enabled auto-delete, Zen Browser will wipe your history and cookies every time you close it. That means:

  • Tracking cookies are gone.
  • No saved login sessions.
  • Fresh start every time you open the browser.

However, this also means you’ll need to log in to sites again each time you visit.

Final Thoughts

Keeping your browser clean is simple. Just activate auto-delete and enjoy a fresh browsing experience every time. No more digital clutter!

Now go ahead, set it up, and browse stress-free!
