Question

How do I recover a deleted browser history?

Community Answer

You can't. Once it is deleted, you cannot get it back unless you have a special type of program that saves the internet browser history. Some routers do show a log history, depending on your provider.

How can I see full details including the date and time of when I was on a website?

If you're using Google as your browser, click on the 3 vertical dots at the top right of the browser window. This will bring up a menu. Select "History" in this menu and you will see a list of the websites you've visited, along with the dates and times.
