How can I delete Recently Closed Tabs & Recently Closed Windows ?

My computer is being scanned after I use it. This person has discovered that Recently Closed Tabs & Recently Closed Windows leaves a trail of the sites that I have visited. I would like to delete this trail but have not discovered how I should do it.

Delete the file sessionstore.js in the Profile Folder

Under the Tools bar, I selected Clear Recent History... which FINALLY cleared it off.

It wouldn't clear before when I attempted to erase from the History, show all history, and deleted all dates listed nor when I tried deleting everything from my Internet Options found on the control panel.

Hope this helps for you as well! : )
