      Hi all back there when I was using Firefox there was an option in the Privacy section to turn off the history so the browser does not remember the browsing history after closing the browser this solution decreases the RAM usage I have 1gigs of ram I am running W7 half- of the ram is required for w7 but the browsing history can impact the ram so has anyone a clue how to clear the browsing data automatically? I had erased it manually but I got an idea to ask here in the forum section thank you for any replies have a blissful day

        Have you tried using a Private Window? (Ctrl+Shift+N). A Private Window will delete all browsing data when you close it, but you will not be able to use extensions (unless you create some exceptions in Opera://extensions).

          In Windows 7 you can put Opera on the Task bar, and to open the program, just right click on the Opera icon on the task bar, and choose, private Window. @joegd21 has a good idea then. Your browsing history will not be recorded. Otherwise, I believe you will have to manually delete the history every time you close the browser.
