 Once again clearing your browser history, we may accidentally lose important information, such as a unique resource or a long-wanted picture that we never got around to saving. It's not hard to restore your history if you've signed in to your Chrome account. As a rule, Google saves all user actions and to see them, just visit the "My Google Actions" page, where you'll find your recently deleted browser history. If you use another browser, you can use the command line to view the DNS cache, which stores all visited domains on your local computer. To do this, open "CMD" with the Windows search bar and type the command "ipconfig/displaydns". In this case, you will not get the exact URL, but you can always find out the name of the visited site.
