Your computer logs everything—yes, even the stuff you delete. On Windows, open Event Viewer by typing it into the search bar. Navigate to Windows Logs > Application and look for entries labeled “Microsoft-Windows-Browser-Broker.” It’s a bit like reading your computer’s diary, but you’ll only see app names, not full URLs. Still, it’s a fun detective move.
For Mac users, open Terminal and type sqlite3 ~/Library/Safari/History.db "SELECT * FROM history_visits;". You’ll get a stream of raw data that feels like hacking—but don’t worry, it’s just Safari’s secret vault. Warning: This only works if you haven’t rebooted or cleared the cache recently.
