Stop Annoying Popups
Control Your Autofill Data in Microsoft Edge

The Problem Understanding the 'Saved Info' Popup Frustration

Many Microsoft Edge users are frustrated by the persistent 'saved info' and 'saved personal info' popups. These popups, designed for convenience, can often interfere with website functionality, browser plugins, and overall browsing speed, causing considerable annoyance.

This guide provides actionable solutions to delete saved data, disable autofill for specific sites, and troubleshoot the irritating popups hindering your browsing experience in Microsoft Edge.

Deleting Saved Information in Edge

Unfortunately, directly deleting individual entries from the 'saved info' popup isn't always straightforward. While older methods like pressing Shift+Delete may have worked in the past, Microsoft frequently updates its browser, rendering these methods obsolete.

Currently, the primary method to manage and delete saved data involves navigating through Edge's settings. Access your settings by typing edge://settings/profiles/personalInfo in the address bar. From there, you can review and delete saved information, including address, payment information, and passwords. Remember to clear your browsing data frequently to remove autofill suggestions if deleting the information directly within the popup doesn't work for you.

Disabling Autofill for Specific Websites

While Edge doesn't natively offer the ability to disable autofill for *specific* websites (a feature highly requested by users), there are workarounds. This functionality may be addressed in future updates.

You can manage Autofill by heading to edge://settings/profiles/personalInfo. However, to mitigate the issues on a per-site basis, consider these strategies:

1. Clear Website Data: Regularly clear browsing data, including cached images and files, to remove autofill data specific to particular websites.

2. Browser Extensions: Explore third-party browser extensions designed to manage autofill settings and block autofill on certain sites. Always review the extension's permissions and user reviews before installing it.

3. Use Private Browsing: Utilize Edge's InPrivate browsing mode to prevent the browser from saving any autofill data for a specific session. This can be helpful when visiting websites where you don't want any information saved.

4. Feedback to Microsoft: Provide feedback through the Edge browser (Help > Send Feedback) or the Microsoft Feedback Hub. The more users express their need for per-site autofill controls, the more likely Microsoft is to implement this feature.

Troubleshooting and Workarounds

If the popups persist despite your efforts, consider these troubleshooting steps:

1. Check Edge Updates: Ensure Microsoft Edge is updated to the latest version. Updates often include bug fixes and performance improvements that might resolve the popup issue.

2. Disable Extensions: Temporarily disable browser extensions to see if any of them are conflicting with autofill or causing the popups. Re-enable them one by one to identify the culprit.

3. Clear Browsing Data: In Edge settings, clear your browsing data, including cookies and cached images and files. This action removes stored data that might be triggering the popups.

4. Reset Edge Settings: If other methods fail, consider resetting your Edge settings to their default values. This will remove any custom settings that may be interfering, but it will also clear your browsing history and saved passwords. Back up your data before resetting.

5. Report the Issue: Use the built-in 'Send Feedback' feature in Edge to report the issue directly to Microsoft. Provide detailed information about the problem, including the websites affected and the steps you've taken.
