You can surf the web without leaving a history trail of the sites you visit by using what feature in Internet Explorer or Microsoft Edge?

Using InPrivate browsing in Internet Explorer or Microsoft Edge allows users to surf the web without leaving a history trail of the sites they visit. When this feature is activated, the browser will not save browsing history, temporary internet files, or cookies once the session is closed. This means that any websites visited during an InPrivate browsing session won't be recorded in the browser's history or accessible to other users of the same device after the session ends.

InPrivate browsing is particularly useful for maintaining privacy on shared or public computers, or for users who want to limit the information stored on their local system during a browsing session. It offers a simple way to prevent the accumulation of browsing footprints that can be tracked by others.

While private browsing, safe mode, and incognito mode serve similar functions in various browsers, the specific term used by Microsoft for this feature is InPrivate browsing, making it the correct answer for this scenario.
