The steps to clear this login history are mentioned below.

Environment

Windows.

Resolution

To delete the values under the 'Server' section, follow these steps:

(1) On the Windows machine where the TDV Studio is installed, close all the open Studios.
(2) Navigate to the location C:\Windows\Users\<user>\compositesw\studio.properties on that machine.
(3) Open the file studio.properties in an editor.
(4) Search for the word ' host' in this document. 
(5) Remove the values that are no longer needed.
      For example, in above case, the 'host' will have values -> 'host=localhost\:10000,,localhost\:10000,localhost\:9400,localhost\:9700,localhost\:9900,localhost\:15000'. Delete these values.
(6) Save the file
(7) Open Studio and check the domain values.
   
 Now the Studio login window will not show any values except for the default value i.e., "localhost: 9400"
