Description
MyLastSearch utility scans the cache and history files of your Web browser, and locate all search queries that you
made with the most popular search engines (Google, Yahoo and MSN) and with popular social networking sites (Twitter, Facebook, MySpace).
The search queries that you made are displayed in a table with the following columns:
Search Text, Search Engine, Search Time, Search Type (General, Video, Images), Web Browser, and the search URL.
You can select one or more search queries and then copy them to the clipboard or save them into text/html/xml file.
Versions History
- Version 1.66:
- Updated to read the cache files of the latest Chrome version (Version 132).
- Fixed a crash problem when reading the old IE11 cache file (WebCacheV01.dat) on Windows 11 24H2.
- Version 1.65:
- Added support for Yandex and DuckDuckGo search engines.
- Version 1.64:
- Fixed to work with the latest build of Windows 10 (For IE11 Web browser)
- Version 1.63:
- Added support for the new cache structure of Firefox 32.
- Version 1.62:
- Fixed issue with Chrome Web browser: MyLastSearch loaded only 4 data files: data_0, data_1, data_2, data_3. It seems that when the cache of Chrome is large enough, it starts to create more cache data files (data_4, data_5...)
Starting from this version, MyLastSearch will read these additional cache data files.
- Version 1.61:
- Fixed to work properly with the history data of Firefox 22.
- Version 1.60:
- Added support for Internet Explorer 10. Be aware that in order to get accurate results for IE10, you may need to
wait a few minutes after you exit from Internet Explorer, so the entire cache database will be written to the disk.
Alternatively, you can log off and then log on again to force the writing to disk.
- Fixed the 'Exclude the queries made by Google Instant' option to work properly again (there was a change in the URL format of Google)
- Version 1.58:
- Fixed bug: In rare cases, MyLastSearch failed to read a few records of Internet Explorer history.
- Added 'Auto Size Columns+Headers' option, which allows you to automatically resize the columns according to the row values and column headers.
- Version 1.57:
- MyLastSearch now also reads the turbo subfolder located under the main cache folder of Opera Web browser.
- Version 1.56:
- Fixed MyLastSearch to detect the correct cache folder of Firefox if the user changed it from Firefox config (browser.cache.disk.parent_directory).
- Version 1.55:
- The search queries are now displayed while scanning the history/cache files of your Web browsers.
- Added 'Stop' menu item displayed while scanning the Web browser data, which allows you to stop the scanning process.
- Version 1.50:
- Added 'Mark Odd/Even Rows' option, under the View menu.
When it's turned on, the odd and even rows are displayed in different color,
to make it easier to read a single line.

(In the previous versions, only one of them was loaded, according to the last modified date/time of the index.dat file)

The new 'Google Instant' feature generates a search query for every letter that the user type in the search box, and
fills the search queries displayed by MyLastSearch with junk queries of incomplete words. This option removes all these junk queries.
- Version 1.45:
- You can now send the search engine queries list to stdout by specifying an empty filename ("") in the command-line of all save parameters.
For example: MyLastSearch.exe /stab "" >> c:\temp\queries.txt

After running it, MyLastSearch scans the cache and history files of your Web browsers (Internet Explorer and/or Firefox), and find all search queries stored in them.
The scanning process may take from a few seconds to 1 minute, depending on the size of your cache and history files.
After the scanning process is finished, the main window should display the list of all search queries the you made with the
most popular search engines.
Command-Line Options
/loadfrom <IE History Folder> <IE Cache Folder> <Mozilla History File> <Mozilla Cache Folder> <Opera Cache Folder> <Chrome Cache Folder>
Load the search queries from the specified cache/history folders of Mozilla/IE/Opera.
You can omit parameters that you don't need by specifying an empty string in quotes - ""
/stext <Filename>

/stab <Filename>

/sort <column>
This command-line option can be used with other save options for sorting by the desired column.
If you don't specify this option, the list is sorted according to the last sort that you made from the user interface.
The <column> parameter can specify the column index (0 for the first column, 1 for the second column, and so on) or
the name of the column, like "Filename" and "Created Time".
You can specify the '~' prefix character (e.g: "~Created Time") if you want to sort in descending order.
You can put multiple /sort in the command-line if you want to sort by multiple columns.
Examples:
MyLastSearch.exe /shtml "f:\temp1円.html" /sort 3
MyLastSearch.exe /shtml "f:\temp1円.html" /sort "~Search Engine" /sort "Search Text"
/nosort
When you specify this command-line option, the list will be saved without any sorting.
