How to Turn Off Recent Search entries display in Windows 7

By default Windows 7 will remember your PC search queries, and display the most recent examples when searching in Windows Explorer. If you're sharing a PC and don't want everyone to see your searches, then you can hide your search queries from other users by:

1. Clicking Start button and type GPEDIT.MSC and press Enter.
