I recently bought a new DELL laptop and it seems to have an automatic save function.

For instance, when I write in the Thread Title line on a post in DU, the next time I go to write a title for a response or to start a discussion, at least 6 of my last titles pop up for me to select.

How do I stop this from happening. Is there an option I can turn off?

Thanks for the help.

1. I think it is a browser feature

I can remember playing a game in the lounge using the last subject line combined with something else, though I don't remember what.

2. It sounds like "form autofill" and / or caches' settings can

be adjusted.

what browser are you using?

3. I'm not sure. It could be any of these 3; Microsoft Edge, Internet Explorer, Google Chrome.

I'm pretty sure it's edge. That's the one with the wave logo?

5. That may be a DU database setting

For example, a member who shall remain nameless calls 80% of their posts "No Shit". I need to click twice in the thread title box, but a similar list appears for me.

I've tried this with 'Show search suggestions' turned both on and off in my browser and it makes no difference. The drop-down list appears on the second click.

FYI, using a desktop computer and Waterfox browser.

7. Try this, I found on Microsoft answers

https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftedge/forum/all/microsoft-edge-autofill-popup-how-to-disable/b1d6d7c2-ba6c-462b-a9d8-0a2a885982b9

This is for the edge browser

Open a new tab and put this into the address bar.

edge://settings/personalinfo

On that page, turn Save and fill personal info Off
