Script to clear browsing history and cache for IE, Firefox and Chrome
Recently I wrote a couple of scripts to clear the browsing history and cache for IE, Firefox and Chrome
Internet Explorer (Powershell)
$t_path_7 = "C:\Users\$env:username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files"
$c_path_7 = "C:\Users\$env:username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Caches"
$d_path_7 = "C:\Users\$env:username\Downloads"
$temporary_path = Test-Path $t_path_7
$check_cache = Test-Path $c_path_7
$check_download = Test-Path $d_path_7
if($temporary_path -eq $True -And $check_cashe -eq $True -And $check_download -eq $True)
{
echo "Clean history"
RunDll32.exe InetCpl.cpl,ClearMyTracksByProcess 1
echo "Clean Temporary internet files"
RunDll32.exe InetCpl.cpl,ClearMyTracksByProcess 8
(Remove-Item $t_path_7\* -Force -Recurse) 2> $null
RunDll32.exe InetCpl.cpl,ClearMyTracksByProcess 2
echo "Clean Cache"
(Remove-Item $c_path_7\* -Force -Recurse) 2> $null
echo "Clean Downloads"
(Remove-Item $d_path_7\* -Force -Recurse) 2> $null
echo "Done"
}
Firefox (batchfile)
@echo off set DataDir=C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles del /q /s /f "%DataDir%" rd /s /q "%DataDir%" for /d %%x in (C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\*) do del /q /s /f %%x\*sqlite
and Chrome (batchfile)
@echo off set ChromeDir=C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data del /q /s /f "%ChromeDir%" rd /s /q "%ChromeDir%"
