when I type something in to search, all of the previous searches show up too. How do I make it stop doing that

Question

when I type a word to search it, all of the stuff that begins with that letter that was looked up before shows up by it.

Answer 1

Tools
Internet Options
Go to Content tab
Click on "auto complete" button
uncheck everything

Answer 2

★★ DISABLE AUTOCOMPLETE ★★

◙ Internet Explorer

1. From Internet Explorer, choose "Tools" then "Internet Options".
2. From the "Internet Options" multi-tabbed dialog box that appears, select the "Content" tab.
3. Click the "AutoComplete" button.
4. Uncheck everything.
5. Click the "Clear Forms" button.
6. Click the "Clear Passwords" button.
7. Press "OK" to close the dialog boxes.

◙ NOTE: AutoComplete may not stay off completely because some webmasters have autocomplete="on" in the form tag in their web forms. If you come to one of these and you can't get the AutoComplete to leave you alone while you type something in to the form. Simply paste the text in from a wordprocessor or notepad and it won't bother you.

Answer 3

Go to your browser and click on the button that says "history". A panel will come up on the left-hand side of the screen; right click on "Today" and click 'delete'. This works for me.

Answer 4

You have to turn off auto complete which can be done when you click on internet options under control panel and then network and internet connections and then internet options.

Answer 5

Clear your history.

Tools
Internet Options
Clear History

If you want to get rid of this feature altogether, change the days to keep in history to 0.

Answer 6

you need to delete your history of past searches
