    Hi,

    Where exactly do you want it removed? Is it showing on your taskbar search or is it on the browser? Please provide more details so I can tell you the proper steps to remove them.

    If the searches are from Bing in Microsoft Edge, clear both Edge browsing data and Bing search history.

    1. In Microsoft Edge, go to Settings and more > Settings > Privacy, search, and services.
    2. Under Clear browsing data, select Choose what to clear.
    3. Pick a Time range, then select Clear now.
      • This removes typed characters and visited sites stored locally in Edge.
    4. If Bing is the default search provider and the browser is signed in, clear Bing searches from the Microsoft Privacy dashboard.
    5. For Bing search history directly, open the Search History page:
      • To remove one item, under Activity, select the search and choose Clear.
      • To remove everything, under Manage or clear your search history, select Clear all.
    6. To stop new Bing searches from being saved, on the Search History page, under Show new searches here, turn off the toggle.

    Important:

    • Clearing Bing search history does not clear browser history.
    • If not signed in, Bing search history is only on that device.
    • If signed in with a Microsoft account, Bing search activity can also appear on the privacy dashboard.
    • If the toggle to turn off search history does not work, enable JavaScript and cookies in the browser and try again.
