How to remove an Auto Complete entry

August 18, 2013

If you are like me, you have changed your alt acct numbers many many times. and now, if you are like me, you have a huggggggeeee list of of them whenever you click. Maybe they are easy to find? Maybe not? Well I have a solution! Get rid of the old ones :)

First, go to any random page that might have a buncha auto-complete stuff in it. Oh look, here's one!

On the 2nd box, hit the number 1 and watch all the lists pop up (I blacked out mine so you can't track me down by my friends lol)

Highlight one of the lines BY USING THE ARROW KEYS UP OR DOWN you want to remove from your options... (see its the gray line below?) and then hold down SHIFT and hit the DELETE key.

ITS GONE!! woot woot!!

P.S. this works on both Chrome and Firefox ! Works on other sites too, where you have auto complete with names, address, etc.

Or on Craigslist.. or Google.. where you entered a search term lol - anywhere where there is autocomplete, this works!

happy cooking!
