cannot remove auto fill entries in Chrome

Super User Asked by Dimitris Papageorgiou on October 14, 2020

I am having trouble removing the auto fill entries that appear when the users starts typing in an input box in chrome.I am on a windows machine.

After searching here the proposed solution is to highlight the entry I want to delete and then press delete or shift+delete.

Neither of these work.
What else can I try?

If you're on a Mac, you likely need to use Fn-Shift-Delete

It's in your bookmark, you have to delete it from your bookmark first.

To remove specific inappropriate or embarrassing suggestions:

  • Start typing some text
  • move up or down with the arrow keys
  • click on Shift-Del to remove the selected URL

If you mean to delete all of auto fill entries there's option in Google Chrome settings "Clear browsing data"

  1. Settings
  2. Show advanced settings... (at the bottom of the page)
  3. Clear browsing data (in Privacy section)
  4. Change "Obliterate the following items from" to the beginning of time
  5. Mark only Autofill form data
  6. Clear browsing data button
