Thank you for clarifying that! If this is about removing saved credentials (usernames, email addresses, or logins that appear in drop-down suggestions), here’s a detailed guide to help you clean them up in Edge:
Once done, these entries should no longer show up when you try to log in to that site. Let me know if you need further clarification or help!
Steps to Remove Saved Credentials in Microsoft Edge
- Open Microsoft Edge:
- Launch the browser and click on the three dots in the top-right corner to open the menu.
- Access Settings:
- From the menu, navigate to Settings.
- Go to Profiles > Passwords:
- Under the “Profiles” section, select Passwords. This is where Edge saves login credentials.
- Find the Login You Want to Remove:
- Scroll through the list of saved passwords to find the entries you no longer need.
- Use the search bar if you have many saved credentials and need to locate a specific one.
- Remove Individual Credentials:
- Click on the three dots next to the entry you want to delete.
- Select Delete to remove it from Edge permanently.
- Disable Auto-Save (Optional):
- If you’d rather Edge not save any credentials in the future, toggle off Offer to save passwords in the same Passwords menu.
Clearing Login Suggestions That Are Not Saved
If the unwanted usernames or email addresses appear in form fields but aren’t saved in Edge’s password manager, here’s how to remove them:- Go to a Login Page:
- Navigate to the website where the unwanted suggestion appears.
- Highlight the Entry:
- Click into the username or email field and start typing. A drop-down list of suggestions will appear.
- Delete the Entry:
- Use the down arrow key to highlight the unwanted suggestion.
- Press Shift + Delete on your keyboard to remove it.
Once done, these entries should no longer show up when you try to log in to that site. Let me know if you need further clarification or help!
