Hello,

This happens periodically. Specificallly setting for Username and password in forms becomes deselected. What is going on and can I do anything about it? It's been happening for a long time with no success in finding answers. Thanks!

Hello,

The problem may be due to the fact that recently you have cleaned out your cookies, browsing history , settings.. to get the Auto-complete options back, follow this procedure:
*Open IE>click on Tools>Internet Options
*Go to the "Content" Tab> You shall find the Auto Complete section>Click on the Settings Button.

*Configure your options : Enable Auto complete for Address Bar, Forms

Good luck.

PS: Have you tried using Google Chrome? IE is indeed a good browser (personally I used it to make all my online money transaction) , but if you want something more flexible for everyday stuffs try Firefox or Google Chrome.

Thanks. That is exactly how I set it. When I visit a webpage that I expect to have this stored, and it isn't any longer, I see that the box is unchecked. Why would it become unchecked and can I force it to stay that way, like you can with your home page, for example?
Thanks!

I've looked further in that matter. It seems that there are many related issues with the auto-complete feature of IE.

Right now I'm unable to point out what the real problem is, but here are some links that provide you some guidance:

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/306895
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/885180
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us

If one of these solutions meet your expectations, don't forget to share the info on Kioskea.

Either way , if not too intrusive, can you point out the URLs of the websites for which the auto-complete feature is not working.

See you around!
