How do I find a site I visited yesterday?
I went to a site yesterday, and forget the name. Is it stored on my computer anywhere?

Try pressing control-h, this should bring up the history tab in either IE or FireFox.

Click on the History button...or tools then, toolbars and then history. Just depends on what your toolbar carries really.

It depends on the settings of your computer, with standard settings it should save it for like 2 to 4 weeks or so.

But this can all be adjusted, which especially happens often on work computers (which can use scripts to delete the temporary internet files and settings).

Do you have a little yellow star on the top left of your toolbar? If so, click it...that should pull up your history.

Did someone else use the computer after you last night. They may have erased history. Or, (I don't know if this is possible) but your computer may be set up to automatically erase history on a daily basis.

How do we get to a list of temporary internet sites visited on Vista? THis would be the same as viewing History and I know I was able to do this in the past on Old, old Windows. Please detail. Thanks.

most of the sites I wanted are under the yellow star. Thanks.

I think I lost the one I wanted. I searched through lots of real estate sites, and I think I lost some of them.

It may be an auto erasure, because I have most of them, but the ones before 9:00am yesterday are gone...blah!

(Probably erase after 24 hours)

Sometimes if my computer freezes and I need to reboot, I lose my history from that day? Any chance that happened yesterday morning?

The yellow star is your favorites If I remeber right. Your history should be the next icon to the right of the yellow star. It should look like a circle with a green arrow circling counter clockwise at the top of the circle. I think.

Look at the top and click on "tools" then click on "internet options" Look toward the bottom in the space called "History" it should tell you how many days it keeps your history.

that's what it is, it keeps them "0" days in history.

Oh, well, I guess I'll go searching randomly again

Thanks for the help everyone.

I'll change the setting to keep it in there a few days.
