6. Once deleted, you will get a confirmation of “Deletion complete. The activity you selected is being permanently deleted from your account and no longer tied to you.” That’s it. The search history and any activity tied to it will now be deleted.

Still not working? There may be a delay in viewing your search activity. If so, simply search two or three other random searches and the last two saved searches will be forgotten. It’s a simple way to clear the previous searches without going through the “My Activity” process that’s outlined above.
