Autofill - how to turn off

[GreenHeart]

New user - just created my 1st fillable form and tested it out, and now I'm getting an autofill or suggestive fill box, how do i turn this off?

Go to Edit - Preferences - Forms and turn Auto Complete to Off.

This does not actually turn off Auto Complete!   you have to delete  the acrobat_fss_signature_initial**  files as this user suggested: https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat-reader-discussions/turn-off-all-autocomplete-and-autosuggesti...

Regarding this answer, where can you turn this off, I cannot find Edit, Preferences, etc in the document or settings.  Please help.

Have a great day!

It is available in Acrobat Reader and Adobe Acrobat.

No, it's not. I'm up to date, and that is not an option.

What does you see in the preferences?

Was there an answer to this question?  I did not get Edit, Preferences in the document or settings either.  There has to be another way to turn OFF the Fill and Sign.

The menu Edit is part of Acrobat.

I am having the same problem and I think it's because I'm using Acrobat for Microsoft edge and it doesn't have the same capabilities. I'm really stumped on this and it's messing up a very important form that I need to fill out online.
