Removing history

[Dale Miller]

I would like to edit or remove my history. Called Netflix but said that they don't do this. I would like to be able to watch what ever I want without others coming on my computer and seeing what I have been doing.

I don't care if they keep an internal record, just as long as I don't have a record when I open my account.

If you don't give anyone your Netflix login information, no one can see your rental history.

You always beat me to it... :-)

How is that helpful when you have a family? Say I want to watch something sexy and my kids log on to watch something.

 

I am NOT getting a different account for all my kids.

 

Sorry, but I had to giggle at the ridiculousness of your answer. No offense, but it doesn't seem very thought out.

Were it me I WOULD get a different account for all my kids.

You said it first: "Sorry, but I had to giggle at the ridiculousness of your answer. No offense, but it doesn't seem very thought out."

so how did u get out of that problem

[Knaldskalle]

Easy. Log out after visiting netflix.com (click the little down-arrow next to your name on the top of any netflix page and pick Sign out). That way noone can see what you've been doing there. Change your password if others have your current one.

Oh, I forgot this: Movie privacy lets you mark watched or queued movies as "private" so your Netflix friends can't see them. If you want to do that to all of them it might take you a while (depending on your history):

Hope that helps.

The question is; what have you been watching that you don't want other people to know about. ; )

I have Pee-wee's Big Adventure on privacy

[Female Trouble]

Netflix told me that there was no interest in this but if there was they would do something about it. BS. There is a ton of interest. It gets confused because there are morons out there incapable of simple reasoning.
Why can't people like you figure out that the reason to clear history is to allow someone else (husband, wife, child, etc) to watch something without the idiot thing show that it's been watched already (so it doesn't keep your place correctly)?
People keep responding as if people were trying to hide what they have been watching. I don't remember anything on Netflix that is so objectionable that this would be needed.
