[solved] Removing midori and local data

ianhoolihan · 2012-02-01 09:34:54

Hi all,

I am trying to clear my browsing data from midori, but I cannot seem to get rid of some autosuggestions in the location bar. (I believe the suggestions are all of past bookmarks.)

So I tried reinstalling midori, but the data remained.

Is there a way to use pacman to completely remove midori? Alternatively, does someone know where such data is stored locally so I can delete it?

Cheers

There are two places where Midori keeps local information. One is ~/.config/midori and the other ~/.local/share/midori. You can remove them altogether or edit some of the files there.

find ~ -name midori

There's also .cache/midori (though it doesn't seem to contain the history.)

Thanks guys. I deleted the information, but accidentally deleted the bookmarks I wished to keep!

Such is life,

Next time you should rename the directories instead of deleting them.
Same effect but you are able to get them back easily.
