Every web browser has a feature to explore its history, but if more than one browser is installed, opening each one manually can be tedious. BrowsingHistoryView is a free tool from Nirsoft that lets you view the complete history of all browsers without having to open them.
You never know for sure what ends up being recorded by the history of each web browser. Although we may have a good idea of our recent visits, there's always a link that gets lost in memory and might (or might not) be uncomfortable in the future.
Exploring history in a browser is a matter of a couple of clicks. However, the process becomes a bit inconvenient when there are three or four browsers installed on the system.
Having a centralized way to check the histories of all browsers is not only useful for the average user, but also for anyone who needs to track specific problems, such as a recent malware infection.
Explore the history of all your browsers
Nirsoft has a suitable tool for this, called BrowsingHistoryView. The program not only allows you to explore the history of all browsers at the same time (Firefox, Chrome, IE, Edge, Brave, Opera, and Safari), but also has options to separate entries by number of visits, date, title, and of course, the browser used on each occasion. If necessary, the user can export the data by generating an HTML report.
The download is only 332 kilobytes, it is compatible with all versions of Windows from Windows 2000 onwards, and there are builds in 32 and 64 bits.
Nirsoft has several tools dedicated to specific web browsers, and even a packet capture tool, but BrowsingHistoryView offers a more general functionality, and probably deserves a place on any maintenance USB drive.
