Does anyone know how to clear details that have been entered in IE forms. eg. when you login to a website, after tying the first couple of letters of your user name a list of previous entries appears? Also, does anyone know where these details are stored? Registry??
This is to add to an app i've created to clear my IE history, temp IE files, and cookies.
Thanks.
These are cookies. They are saved in your Temperary Internet Folder.
C:\Documents And Settings\YourUserName\Cookies
The files user name and passwords are encrypted, but that should be easy to find a way around as long as its not some really hard encryption type. Im not sure of that though.
And to clear these, either delete all the files in that folder, or goto Internet Options > Delete Cookies.
Do you mean the AutoComplete function details? Like if you go to google.com and click on the text box, it will give you a list of searches you're made in the past? To clear those, go to Tools --> Internet Options --> Content --> AutoComplete --> Clear Forms/Passwords .
They're not stored in the registry because I've searched the registry and failed to find any of my past searches on google.
