Moving backwards means returning to a page that you have just navigated away from. That means you clicked on some link or typed in another web address and now return to the previous website.
Moving forwards is only applicable after you have navigated backward. For example, you clicked the back arrow once too often. In this case the forward button moves you forward through the pages that you have left. That means, moving forward is undoing your backwards move.
- There is a
go forward and ago backward button in the top left corner of the browser. But you can also use keyboard shortcuts. - Moving forward in history:
Alt+Right arrow ORShift+Backspace - Moving backward in history:
Alt+Left arrow ORBackspace
