When using 'search' to find a file or folder (from 'My Computer'), how can
you clear the drop down box that lists everything you searched beginning with
the first letter you type? I tried 'Control Panel -> Internet Options ->
Content -> AutoComplete -> Clear Forms', but it doesn't seem to work. I've
even restarted the computer and to no avail. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Try moving the mouse to it, when it comes up.  When it highlights, hit the
delete key.
I'm not sure this will work.  It seems to work with emails.
