Hi, I am unable to find the proper solution to stop autofilling / delete autofill options I have the autofill settings off in Forms and Autofill section and there are not saved addresses . Please reference the 3 attached screenshots of my configuration and example of the autofill .

Any suggestions on where else to configure this to be off.

Thanks Mike

You could try removing Form and search history with Clear Recent History (ctl+shft+del).

You can use these steps to remove saved items from an autocomplete drop-down list.

  1. click the (empty) input field on the webpage to open the drop-down list
  2. highlight an entry in the drop-down list with cursor Down key
    do not click the mouse or press the Enter key
  3. press "Delete" or "Shift+Delete" to delete the highlighted entry

Note that hovering with the mouse doesn't work.
