Hello Community,

Is there any way to permanently clear all the commands displayed in the line recall History. The :clear deletes all the commands in that particular process/recall buffer.

Thanks!

If you are on Windows, then you should have an .iris_history file on C:\Users\<yourusername>\. Deleting this will clear your history

Thanks Chris, It works. However, There is no command to do it from terminal itself?

How about:

:clear

!del %USERPROFILE%\.iris_history

:clear deletes all the commands in that particular process/recall buffer. If you open another terminal and :history shows all commands. So, I thought some native commands exist like :clear to delete the commands history permanently.

!del %USERPROFILE%\.iris_history - yes, we can the use the file system commands.

Thanks!
