The search function on the computer is very convenient: you do not need to look through each folder in search of the desired file, the system will do everything itself. It is not difficult for an experienced user to open the search window and close it. But a newbie may have problems in order to deactivate the search function.
Instructions
Step 1
The search box can be called up in different ways. If you opened it through the "Start" menu and the "Search" command, just close the window in the usual way: left-click on the X icon in the upper right corner of the window. You can also use the keyboard. Press the alt="Image" key and, while holding it down, the F4 key - the window will close.
Step 2
If you called the search function from any other folder by clicking on the corresponding button located at the top of the window, then you can close the search in the same way. Click again on the "Search" button at the top of the folder window - the search form will disappear, the folder will take on a normal look.
Step 3
If suddenly you have only the top menu bar in the folder window, and the buttons have disappeared, reconfigure the window view. To return the buttons, click on the top menu bar with the right mouse button, in the drop-down menu, set the marker opposite the line "Regular buttons".
Step 4
Browsers also have a search option and, with appropriate settings, remember what the user was looking for. If you want your browser not to record what exactly you were looking for on the Internet, set the appropriate settings.
Step 5
Using the Mozilla Firefox browser as an example: launch the browser in the usual way. In the top menu bar, select the "Tools" item, in the drop-down menu, left-click on the "Settings" line, and a new dialog box will open.
Step 6
In the window that opens, go to the "Privacy" tab. In the "History" group, use the drop-down list in the "Firefox" field to set the "Will not remember history" value. Click OK for the new settings to take effect.
Step 7
To clear your browser's form and search history, select Tools from the top menu bar. In the drop-down menu, left-click on the line "Erase recent history". In the dialog box that appears, place a marker in the field opposite the inscription "Forms and search history", click the "Clear now" button and confirm the command.
