How to Delete History from Flash Projector
Flash Projectors are standalone applications that are used to run Flash files (.swf) outside of a web browser. These files store data, including browsing history, in the temporary files folder of your computer. To protect your privacy, you may want to delete the history of your Flash Projector. In this article, we will discuss how to delete history from Flash Projector.

- Windows 8 and 10: Press the Windows key + X and select "Control Panel" from the menu. Search for "Flash Player" and open the Flash Player Settings Manager.
- Mac OS: Open "System Preferences" and search for "Flash Player". Open the Flash Player Settings Manager.
Step 2: Delete the History
After opening the Flash Player Settings Manager, select the "Advanced" tab. Under the "Advanced" tab, you will see the "Delete All" button. Click on it to delete all the data stored by the Flash Projector, including its history.
Alternatively, you can selectively delete the history by clicking on the "Website Storage Settings" button, located in the "Advanced" tab.

You can select individual websites and click on the "Delete Website" button to delete their data, including their browsing history.
