How to Remove Google Chrome Autofills
When you enter a search query in Google’s search bar, you will notice a list of suggested results saved from your previous search queries. This usually appears in the form of a drop down menu. It is a useful tool added to the search bar by Google, allowing the users to see the list of suggested results based on your previous searches. This feature also allows us to see popular search engine results depending on the first few words we type in the search bar. Although the tool was originally designed to help the users save their valuable time by making the search process more efficient and faster, sometimes it looks very boring and can be interfering.

Similar problems have been reported by Google chrome users as well. The browser also saves your search queries on its built in memory and it displays the suggested results when you starting filling in forms or enter a url address. While most of the users do not mind working with Google’s auto-fill program, it can be deleted on both Chrome and Google search.
