我们在互联网上的所有活动都以某种形式注册。最常见的互联网活动，即浏览/浏览万维网是通过缓存文件、cookie、浏览历史记录等方式记录的。虽然缓存和 cookie 是帮助快速加载网页和这些页面上的图像的临时文件，但浏览历史只是我们在该特定浏览器上访问的所有网站的列表。如果用户需要重新访问特定网页但不记得确切的URL甚至主网站域，则历史列表非常方便。要在任何网络浏览器上查看您的浏览历史记录，只需同时按下Ctrl 和 H(Ctrl and H)键。
无论是清理浏览器还是简单地向家人/同事隐藏我们的浏览轨迹，我们都会定期清除历史记录以及其他临时文件。但是，这意味着我们将无法轻松查看以前访问过的网站，而是必须重新开始我们的研究。最近的Windows(Windows)或Google Chrome更新也可以自动清除 chrome 历史记录。不过，您不必担心，因为有多种方法可以在Google Chrome上恢复已删除的历史记录，而且所有这些方法在执行方面都相当简单。
如何在谷歌浏览器上恢复已删除的历史记录(How to Recover Deleted History On Google Chrome)
我们的浏览历史记录本地保存在 C 盘中，每次单击Chrome中的清除(Chrome)历史记录(History)按钮时，我们只是删除了这些文件。历史文件一旦被删除，就像其他所有文件一样，将被移入回收站(Recycle)并保留在那里直到被永久删除。因此，如果您最近清除了浏览器历史记录，请打开回收站(Recycle)并将原始位置为C:\Users\*Username*\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default的所有文件恢复。
如果您不走运并且上述技巧没有帮助，请尝试我们在下面解释的其他四种方法来恢复您的Chrome历史记录。
在 Chrome 上恢复已删除历史记录的 4 种方法(4 Ways to Recover Deleted History on Chrome)
方法一：使用 DNS 缓存 (Method 1: Use DNS Cache )
在开始使用此方法之前，我们想通知读者，此方法仅在您删除Chrome历史记录后未重新启动或关闭计算机时才有效（每次启动时都会重置DNS缓存）。(DNS)如果您已执行重新启动，请跳至下一个方法。
计算机使用域名系统(Domain Name System )( DNS ) 来获取特定域名的 IP 地址并将其显示在我们的浏览器上。我们的浏览器和应用程序发出的每个互联网请求都由我们的DNS服务器以缓存的形式保存。可以使用命令提示符查看此缓存数据，尽管您将无法查看整个浏览历史记录，而只能查看最近的一些查询。此外，请确保您已连接到互联网。
1. 按Windows Key + R启动“运行”(Run)命令框，在文本框中键入cmd，然后单击“确定( Ok)”打开命令提示符( Command Prompt)。您也可以直接在搜索栏中搜索相同的内容。
2. 在提升的命令提示符(Command Prompt)窗口中，键入ipconfig/displaydns，然后按 Enter(Enter)以执行命令行。
3. 一段时间后会显示最近访问过的网站列表以及一些其他详细信息。
方法 2：恢复到以前的 Google Chrome 版本 (Method 2: Restore to a Previous Google Chrome Version )
如前所述，删除浏览历史只不过是从某个位置删除一些物理文件的行为。如果我们能够取回这些文件，我们将能够恢复我们的Chrome浏览历史记录。除了从回收站(Recycle)恢复文件外，我们还可以尝试将 Chrome 应用程序恢复到以前的状态。(try restoring the Chrome application to a previous state.)每次发生重大更改（例如删除临时文件）时，Windows都会自动创建一个还原点（假设该功能已启用）。按照以下步骤恢复谷歌浏览器并检查您的历史记录是否恢复。(Google Chrome)
1. 双击桌面上的文件资源管理器(File Explorer)快捷方式图标或按 Windows key + E打开应用程序。
2. 沿着以下路径前进：

6. 单击确定(Ok )或十字图标(Cross icon)关闭属性窗口。
方法 3：检查您的 Google 活动(Method 3: Check Your Google Activity)
如果您已将Chrome浏览器与您的Gmail帐户同步，那么还有另一种方法可以检查浏览历史记录。谷歌(Google)的“我的活动(My Activity)”服务是该公司跟踪我们在互联网上的活动的众多方式之一。这些数据用于进一步改进Google提供的海量服务。您可以从“我的活动”(My Activity)网站 查看他们的网络和应用活动（浏览历史和应用使用情况）、位置历史、YouTube历史、控制您看到的广告类型等。
1.按Ctrl + T打开一个新的Chrome 选项卡(Chrome Tab)并访问以下地址 - https://myactivity.google.com/
2.如果出现提示，请登录(Sign in)您的Google帐户。
3.单击(Click)左上角的三个水平条（汉堡图标(hamburger icon)），然后从菜单中选择项目视图。( Item View)
4. 使用按日期和产品筛选(Filter by date & product)选项来缩小活动列表（单击该选项并仅勾选Chrome旁边的框）或使用顶部搜索栏直接搜索特定项目。
方法 4：使用第三方恢复应用程序(Method 4: Use a Third-Party Recovery Application)
没有在回收站中找到历史文件并且没有将Chrome恢复到以前版本的选项的用户可以下载第三方恢复应用程序并使用它来恢复已删除的文件。CCleaner的(CCleaner)Minitool和Recuva是Windows 10最推荐的两个恢复程序。
1. 通过 CCleaner 下载Recuva 的(Recuva by CCleaner)安装文件(installation files)。单击下载的.exe文件，然后按照屏幕上的说明安装恢复应用程序。
2. 安装后，打开程序并扫描( scan the directory)包含Google Chrome文件夹的目录。对于大多数用户来说，这将是一个 C 驱动器，但如果您在任何其他目录中安装了Chrome，请扫描它。
3.等待(Wait)程序完成对已删除文件的扫描。根据文件的数量和计算机，该过程可能需要几分钟到几个小时。
4.Save/restore已删除的历史文件：

How to Recover Deleted History On Google Chrome?
All our activities on the internet are regiѕtered in some form or the other. The most common internet activity, i.e, surfіng/browsing the world wide web is recorded by means of cache files, cookies, browѕing history, etc. While cachе and cookiеs are temporary files that helр web pages and images on those pages load quickly, browsing history is solely a list of all the websites we visit on that particular browser. The hіstory list comes in extremely handy if users nеed to revisit a particular webpage bυt do not remember thе exact URL or evеn the main websіte domain. To check your browsing history on any web browser, simply prеss the Ctrl and H keys simultaneously.
Either to clean up the browser or to simply hide our browsing track from family members/colleagues, we routinely clear the history along with other temporary files. However, this implies that we won’t be able to check out previously visited websites as easily but instead will have to start our research all over again. The chrome history can also get automatically cleared by a recent Windows or Google Chrome update. Although, you need not worry as there are multiple ways to recover one’s deleted history on Google Chrome and all of them are fairly simple in terms of execution.
How to Recover Deleted History On Google Chrome
Our browsing history is locally saved in the C drive and every time we click on the Clear History button in Chrome, we are merely deleting these files. The history files once deleted, like everything else, are moved into the Recycle bin and stay there until deleted permanently. So if you recently cleared the browser history, open the Recycle bin and restore all files with the original location as C:\Users\*Username*\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default.
If you were unlucky and the above trick didn’t help, try the four other methods we have explained below to restore your Chrome history.
4 Ways to Recover Deleted History on Chrome
Method 1: Use DNS Cache
Before getting started on this method, we would like to inform the readers that this one only works if you haven’t restarted or shut down your computer after deleting the Chrome history (DNS cache gets reset on every boot). If you have performed a restart, skip to the next method.
Computers use a Domain Name System (DNS) to fetch the IP address of a particular domain name and display it on our browsers. Every internet request from our browsers & applications is saved by our DNS server in the form of a cache. This cache data can be viewed using the command prompt, although you won’t be able to view your entire browsing history but only a few recent queries. Also, ensure that you are connected to the internet.
1. Press Windows Key + R to launch the Run command box, type cmd in the text box, and click on Ok to open the Command Prompt. You can also directly search for the same in the search bar.
2. In the elevated Command Prompt window, type ipconfig/displaydns, and hit Enter to execute the command line.
3. A list of recently visited websites will be displayed along with a few additional details in some time.
Method 2: Restore to a Previous Google Chrome Version
As mentioned earlier, deleting browsing history is nothing but an act of deleting some physical files from a certain location. If we were able to get those files back, we would in turn be able to recover our Chrome browsing history. Apart from restoring files from the Recycle bin, we can also try restoring the Chrome application to a previous state. Every time a major change such as deletion of temporary files occurs, Windows automatically creates a restore point (given that the feature is enabled). Restore Google Chrome by following the below steps and check if your history comes back.
1. Double-click on the File Explorer shortcut icon on your desktop or press Windows key + E to open the application.
2. Head down the following path:
C:\Users\*username*\AppData\Local
Note: Make sure to replace the username with the actual username of your computer.
3. Locate the Google sub-folder and right-click on it. Select Properties from the ensuring context menu.
4. Move to the Previous Versions tab of the Google Properties window.
5. Select a version before you had deleted your browsing history (Check the Date and Time data to get a clearer idea) and click on Apply.
6. Click on the Ok or the Cross icon to close the Properties window.
Method 3: Check Your Google Activity
If you have synced the Chrome browser with your Gmail account then there is yet another way to check the browsing history. Google’s My Activity service is one of the many ways the company maintains a track of our movement on the internet. The data is used to further improve the gazillion number of services that Google offers. One can view their web and app activity (browsing history and app usage), location history, YouTube history, take control of what kind of ads you see, etc. from the My Activity website.
1. Open a new Chrome Tab by pressing Ctrl + T and visit the following address – https://myactivity.google.com/
2. Sign in to your Google account if prompted.
3. Click on the three horizontal bars (hamburger icon) at the top-left corner and select Item View from the menu.
4. Use the Filter by date & product option to narrow down the activity list (click on the option and only tick the box next to Chrome) or directly search for a specific item using the top search bar.
Method 4: Use a Third-Party Recovery Application
Users that did not find the history files in the recycle bin and nor had the option to restore Chrome to a previous version can download a third-party recovery application and use it to recover the deleted files. Minitool and Recuva by CCleaner are two of the most recommended recovery programs for Windows 10.
1. Download the installation files for Recuva by CCleaner. Click on the downloaded .exe file and follow the on-screen instructions to install the recovery application.
2. Once installed, open the program and scan the directory containing the Google Chrome folder. For most users, this will be a C drive but if you have installed Chrome in any other directory, scan that.
3. Wait for the program to finish scanning for deleted files. Depending on the number of files and the computer, the process can take anywhere from a couple of minutes to a few hours.
4. Save/restore the deleted history files at:
C:\Users\*Username*\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default
