Hi,
Please note that the option would be inactive until a form box on a web page has been filled and submitted, or a search word on the top right search box has been entered and searched. Also, Remember search and form history in Tools (Alt + T) > Options > Privacy has to be enabled, if Firefox will is set to Use custom settings for history. Otherwise Firefox will should be set to Remember history. Options > Privacy
Thank You for helping me understand why this was happening another thing I can stop wondering about. Good! ; )
You are welcome :)
I tried all of the listed options, and nothing works. I still have unwanted saved information in my forms and no matter how many times I go to gmail, click on the pull-down menu for my user name and then go to tools, clear recent history, un-check everything except forms & history, when I go back to my gmail sign-in - ALL user names (that I don't want shown) are STILL listed in the drop down menu. How do I get EVERYTHING in ALL forms to clear correctly?
Use these steps to remove saved (form) data from a drop down list:
- Click the (empty) input field on the web page to open the drop down list
- Highlight an entry in the drop down list
- Press the Delete key (on Mac: Shift+Delete) to remove it.
- Tools > Options > Security: Passwords: "Saved Passwords" > "Show Passwords"
Thank you very much!
