How to Delete Yahoo History
Yahoo! is a popular site for basically anything: email, news, articles, etc. Like many search engines, Yahoo! will save your searches so that you can return to recent history easily. However, you may want to remove some of this information from time to time. You can clear your search history from either the desktop or mobile version of the Yahoo! site.
Deleting Your Yahoo Search History

Desktop

Visit .search.yahoo.com/history. You can also perform a Yahoo! search, hover over the Gear icon in the upper-right corner, and select "Search History".

Sign into your Yahoo! account. This isn't strictly necessary; if you're not logged in you'll see all the searches you made while not logged into your account. To see the searches associated with your Yahoo! account, click the "Sign In" button in the upper-right corner.

Delete a single entry by clicking the trash can button. Each of the searches you have performed will have this button to the right of the entry.

Delete all of your search history by clicking the "Clear History" button. You will be asked to confirm that you want to delete your entire history.

Prevent future tracking by clicking "Turn History Off". Yahoo! will no longer store your search history.
