I also just don't want to be forced to navigate to that content whenever
there's a password change and/or anything else  Edge wants to store.
Hopefully I'll find it as I didn't before.

Thanks for the tip.

Go into Settings -> Profiles -> Personal Info. Save and fill personal info
is the first toggle.

Subject: [VICUG-L] Getting rid of Microsoft's intrusive forced navigation to
it's settings, etc

Hello Everyone,

I can generally press F6 to navigate away from Microsoft Edge's intrusive
forced navigation to its Settings, etc however, I am having issues where it
wants to auto-fill information that isn't even mine because I used a
friend's contact information as a personal reference on a form.

This is really annoying and I am surprised  that Microsoft considers this to
be acceptable as it's a sure way for personally identifiable information to
be disclosed in the wrong place.

 Now what is most annoying is this auto-fill of forms with information which
isn't even mine and I hadn't acknowledged for it to be used.

I recall awhile back, someone posted some information as to how to prevent
Microsoft edge from storing information if one doesn't desire it as well as
not forcing one to to navigate to their settings, etc.

I have tried to look through settings and anything I could pulldown but
these settings are evading me.

Please share as although I save a lot of email in a folder for this list, I
can't, for the life of me, find that email.

Thank you so very much in advance!

Amanda Lee
