Description of the issue: How do I edit or prevent Brave from storing data that displays in drop down menus? How can this issue be reproduced? ??
I havenāt used Autofill in a long time but I believe that is what you are wanting to change, so go to:
Brave Settings > Autofill and passwords
Which leads you to: brave://settings/autofill
and go through all the settings and menus etc. within there and turn them all off or as you see fit.
Along with the above, more specifically: brave://password-manager/settings brave://settings/payments brave://settings/addresses ā I believe is most important to you.
Assuming this resolves your issue, consider hitting the Solution button, not so much for some stat for myself but for others who might have a similar question in the future.
If it doesnāt, be more specificā¦
e.g. I see in my search results on this / the Brave Community website there are still things hanging around in recent searches, but I believe that is because of Cookies and site data
Which would then be found here: brave://settings/content/all
& for future reference, a tip for search: Magnifying Glass (top right) > Filters Button (on right side of pop down) > leading to Advanced Search, you can use for better search results.
Brave remembers my library card number; it always appears in the drop-down menu when I click on the field to login. Even when I delete the number by selecting the āxā on the right of the drop-down menu, the number disappears, but still, I have to manually enter the number to access my account, Brave stores it again. Iāve turned off everything having to do with passwords, credit cards, addresses, etc. While I can view stored information, when itās there, Iāve never seen my library card number displayed anywhere; it doesnāt have a password associated with it.
Iāve reinstalled brave, turned off the aforementioned features immediately, but the condition still persist.
Iāve come hear and itās been marked as read but Iām too tired to respond so I apologize, Iāll try to come back tomorrow but if not bump the post and hopefully some other support can assist, Iāll try to remember to come back to you, sorry if you get lost in the shuffle
