Deleting Your Browsing History
Your browser records all of the web pages you visit and syncs that history between every browser device. Your history syncs to your account (Google, Microsoft, etc.) in the cloud. Deleting your history on one device will sync across all your devices and cloud account (although you might want to double-check that it happens).
Remember that your online Google or Microsoft account stores information beyond your browser history. Microsoft saves your history for Bing search, Office, and other Microsoft products. Google remembers your history on YouTube, Maps, Google Search, and other Google products.
