How to delete queries in the Yandex search bar if you don't want to share your interests read on with other people.
We will look at what to do when using the search bar. in the browser and for search in Yandex on the taskbar Windows.

However, it is easiest to configure " Personal search"in such a way that the clues do not carry information about your search history.
The algorithm is as follows: 
To delete requests in Yandex Line
In Windows 10, Yandex.String is located on the taskbar, default. Yandex.Stroka makes it possible to carry out a search query on the Internet directly from the taskbar without directly launching the browser. Another line searches for folders on your computer. And can react to voice commands... Quite convenient and safe if only you use the computer.
Where does Yandex.Stroka get search suggestions from?
The string draws information from several sources- list of links on request from Yandex search
- links to sections of the selected site
- answers to popular Yandex queries
- results of indexing computer media (HDD, SSD, etc.)
Often experts or just beginners ask themselves how to view the history of queries in Yandex. For this there is a wonderful service - Yandex Wordstat. It is located. It is also a great selection tool semantic core... We go to this service and see the following (Figure 1):
On the left we see a link - "Specify the region". First of all, we choose the region of interest to us. I chose Moscow. Next, enter the query of interest, for example, "website promotion". Next, we want to see the demand for given request by month. Click on the link "by month" at the top (Figure 2).
Figure 2. History of the request "website promotion" by months.
As you can see from Figure 2, the demand for the request "website promotion" from April to May began to fall, and then stabilized at approximately the same level. A lot of conclusions can be drawn from this graph. There is also data in tabular form (Figure 3):
Figure 3. History of the request "website promotion" by months in the form of a table in Wordstat
Based on Figures 2 and 3, you can draw conclusions about the "demand" for the request, and therefore for the services of your business. At the top, you can also see the history of requests by week. Then, for our request, the picture will be as follows (Figure 4):

If you want to see statistics on request in the context of cities, then select the link "by regions" at the top.
Figure 5. Query statistics by city

It can be seen that it is very easy to view the history of requests in Yandex. Therefore, we use and do not forget that WordStat and other statistics and query history services, for example, the same SEMrush, are the foundation of today's Internet marketing.
Anyone who at least once in their life searched for information on the Internet knows that various search engines are used for these purposes. The most famous of them are Google and Yandex. And if Google is more typical for English-language sites, then Yandex is best suited for Runet.
It is typical that Yandex saves the history of information search, regardless of whether you want it or not. In addition, your search history will be saved regardless of which browser you use for these purposes: Yandex, Opera, Chrome or Mozilu.
You should immediately make it clear what exactly you want to remove: request history in the Yandex search engine or visit history in Yandex Browser.
