    How to stop Google from auto filling forms


    Just recently I've noticed whenever I click on the field that needs to be filled in there's a drop-down of several of the last things I've entered in forms on Google.

    I'm not sure if this happens with one of the upgrades but recently it just started happening and I like to find out where I can disable it so that Google doesn't save anything nor does it offer to fill in any text or passwords. I already have passwords disabled but I couldn't find where to disable the auto fill feature.

    Thanks as always

    Nevermind I found where I need to make the adjustment, I must've been blind because it's in the same section as passwords. Thanks for your reply

    I thought it was just me. I just started noticing this also. I do use autocomplete a lot, but the drop down list never automatically showed. If I clicked in a field there was no drop down of previous entries. I either had to start typing, or double click to get the list. I thought I was going crazy because I know it was never like that before, and I don't like it much. I like the old way better. I can't turn off the feature since I do use it, but dang, don't just change the behavior like that Google. At least give an option to show automatically or not.

    That is one reason I don't use Google.

    Google has made it impossible to not use them, unless you're talking about the browser only

    I just had to reinstall Google and I am going though making sure all the settings are the way I want them. I am once again having issues with web forms, whenever I start to type in one it tries to auto complete. In this thread I found the way to stop this but didn't post it in my reply. Now I wish I did because now I can't find it. NOTE TO SELF if you find a answer to a question, even if it is your thread post the answer too.........lol

    Thanks for your reply in the links. I was having a problem with chrome and had to uninstall it and reinstall it. I downloaded the latest Version 70.0.3538 And under the advanced section of the settings there is no Password & Forms section nor is there an auto fill section ????
