Anyone know where autocomplete for ie forms is stored?

anyone know?

Do you want to erase it or what?

yes - but with vb ;)

hey theres a really neat function in REGEDIT called 'SEARCH'! try it sometimes!

for example, if the program is called Internet Explorer try searching for 'Internet Explorer'!

its really magical!
:rolleyes:

I know how you can turn autocomplete off...you need to edit the registry...is that ok?

HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Control Panel\FormSuggest

1) get RegMon
2) Clear autocomplete using ie
3) look at regmon

It basically deletes loads of stuff from: HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Protected Storage System Provider\

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Protected Storage System Provider\S-1-5-21-1960408961-839522115-854245398-1003 is the key

when i tried to delete it, it failed (the whole dir) because its read only

how can i delete every item in there? or, how can i delete it by using a webbrowser? (is this possible?)

thanks


ps: is S-1-5-21-1960408961-839522115-854245398-1003 always the key? otherwise im really screwed :)

isnt it part of your typed urls and your bookmarks? so just remove the typed urls (and bookmarks:D if you want to screw with them).

no, autocomplete for forms is completely different..

anyone know?

maybe use regmon, then delete the autocomplete, and maybe you'll come up with more keys.

there were LOts of keys in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Protected Storage System Provider\S-1-5-21-1960408961-839522115-854245398-1003 that it deleted.. nothing else.

how can i delete all keys from that key, and is 'S-1-5-21-1960408961-839522115-854245398-1003' always the key for IE autocomplete?

no it's not..
and i cant find any keys there.........

that one long key you have starting with an s is different for me. It is:
S-1-5-21-2000478354-1383384898-1343024091-1000

It appears to be unique for each machine; mine is:
S-1-5-21-725345543-152049171-1957994488-500

i think the values are hidden.

regmon shows that there are many subdirectories in that directory

arrghhh

is there a way to call up internet explorer's settings and remove the entries using api or something?

anyone?
