How to remove unwanted addresses from the browser autocomplete

By accessing any site for the first time, you can prevent a typo, and the browser you will not forgive. If you accidentally faceboik will enter instead of facebook, then it is the wrong version of the program will be offered in the first place.

Most radically solves this problem by clearing the browser history and even files cookie. After this we have to re-enter all your accounts, which takes a lot of time. But there is a much easier way to remove unneeded addresses from autocomplete. However, it does not work in all browsers.

Chrome

Start typing the site address, and the browser will give the wrong recommendation, hold Shift (or Shift + Fn on MacOS) and click Delete. You can scroll through the results of the up and down arrows and delete the ones you do not need.

Firefox

In the browser from Mozilla is working the same trick as in Chrome. To remove objectionable address, just select it with the arrow keys on your keyboard and click Delete, if you have the Windows, or Shift + Delete, if you have a Mac.

More can be removed from the browser's history the whole site.

1. Press the left button in the upper right corner and select "History".
2. At the bottom, click "Show All History".
3. Click on unnecessary resources, right-click and click "Forget about this site."

Edge

The Edge will have to act in the old way - completely remove the story visits.

1. Click on the three dots at the top right and then click the "Options".
2. Under the words "Clear browser data" click "Choose what you want to clear."
3. Check only "Browsing history" and click "Delete."

Safari

Here the situation is the same as in the Edge.

1. Go to the menu "History" and select "Clear History."
2. In the drop-down menu, specify for what period you want to clear the record.
3. Confirm the action by clicking on "Clear History."
