Question

How can I figure out which version of Firefox I have installed?

Community Answer

Right click the top of the Firefox window, click Menu Bar, click Help, About Firefox. Under the Firefox logo, it will say Firefox and then a number. That is the version you have.

I am using Firefox 45, so how do I clear the Cache?

From the History menu, select Clear Recent History. If the menu bar is hidden, press Alt to make it visible. From the Time Range to Clear: drop-down menu, select the desired range; to clear your entire cache, select Everything. Next to "Details", click the down arrow to choose which elements of the history to clear; to clear your entire cache, select all items. Click Clear Now. Exit/quit all browser windows and re-open the browser.

Question

How do I delete an account on my browser?

Community Answer

This depends entirely on what account you're trying to delete. Some websites don't provide an easy option for deleting an account and require contacting support. Some will have "punishments" for deleting an account (intended to encourage you to keep the account). Others will simply have a "Delete Account" option in your account settings or at the bottom of the emails they send you.

Question

How can I clear my search history if my parents have blocked it?

Community Answer

On an iPhone, you can still clear your history. First pull up your history in Safari (the book icon in the bottom right). There should be three tabs and the one on the right should be your browsing/search history. When you switch to the history tab after pressing the book icon, the “clear” button in the bottom right is actually blue for half a second even if it doesn’t look like it. Quickly switch to another tab and back to the history tab over and over and spam the “clear” button while doing so with your other hand until your history clears. This may take a couple of tries.

Question

On Safari, if you clear data and history, will it keep your account on wikiHow or any account?

Michaelaaaaaa

Community Answer

No. It does not keep your account log-in data for automatic log in, so if you just want to relog into any of your socials, you have to manually do it again.
