By pressing ctrl + h, You can display the Bash_history file. there you can delete the contents of the file with del (delete on the keyboard),after that click save. and you are returned to the terminal , there you can check that command history is available or not

The history command allows to manipulate the command history in linux. This command allows us with the-cd 'clear history.also You can delete the terminal history by deleting the file '.bash_history' from your home folder. You'll need to click on 'Show Hidden Files' in the 'View' menu first to be able to see it.

To clear the terminal history, enter the following at the command line
Terminal:-

gnulinux@gnulinux:~$ history -c


Another way to clear the history is to enter the following command:
Terminal:-
gnulinux@gnulinux:~$ sudo gedit ~/.bash_history

Enter your root password.

Remove / Delete all the commands from the file and save the file.

Close the terminal, and re-open it. Your history has now been removed.

I like clearing the screen after deleting history for a fresh, clean, uncluttered work environment. So, I do this:

history -c ; clear
