Deleting selected autocomplete entries in Microsoft Edge

Some form fields on web pages and the Location Bar and the Search Bar have autocomplete drop down lists that appear with a list of previously-entered data.

How can I delete selected entries in such drop down lists in Microsoft Edge browser?

Note: Please do not respond with answers that advise to remove all entries.

Solution 1:

You'll need a text editor.

1. Close all edge windows.

2. Find this file:

typedurls.json

"C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge_8wekyb3d8bbwe\RoamingState\typedurls.json"

3. Search for the entry. ie. bing.com

4. Remove entire json entry.

example:

{"VisitCount":1,"URL":"https://bing.com/","DateUpdatedLow":1588077197,"DateUpdatedHigh":30529921},

5. Save the file.
6. Start edge.
7. Close edge.
8. Start edge again.
9. Test the auto-complete bar.

This worked for me. I had to launch and close edge at least one time for it to flush the cache out of memory.

Solution 2:

This answer is for removing and/or editing form data entries. For how to remove an entry from the location bar's history of typed urls, see Ben L's answer.

Note: I don't know about older versions of Microsoft Edge, but this works on Windows 10 version 1803 build 17134.48 which includes Microsoft Edge version 42.17134.1.0 and Microsoft EdgeHTML version 17.17134.
Also, I'm currently using a high resolution monitor with scaling turned on, so my screenshots might be appear a bit larger than what you'll see on your monitor.

1. Click the ". . ." button at the top right of the Microsoft Edge window.
   
2. Near the bottom of the menu that appears, click "Settings".
   
3. Near the bottom of the sidebar that appears, there's a section labeled "Advanced Settings", in there, click "View advanced settings".
   
4. Now look for the "Autofill Settings" section, and click "Manage form entries".
   

5. Hover your mouse over the entry you want to delete, and click the X that appears at the top right corner of it.

   Note: This screen also sports an "Add new" button so you can add another entry if desired. Clicking this opens a blank copy of the form in the following step for you to fill out for yourself.

6. If you only want to remove (or alter) some of the information associated with one of these entries, you can click on the entry, edit it, and click "Save" at the bottom.
   

Solution 3:

For the new Chromium-based Microsoft Edge browser, this works:

1. Type in the address bar
2. Use the down arrow key to highlight the suggestion entry you want to delete
3. press shift + Delete
