Autocomplete on Files dialog boxes


Recommended Posts

Posted

I had to reinstall XP Pro recently and now when I save a file using Save As

I am given a dropdown list of files to select from based on what I have

typed so far but does not autocomplete to the first file in the list - it

used to do this in my previous installation and all I had to do was either

press enter to select the autocompleted file or click on one in the dropdown

list. Is there a setting somewhere which needs to be activated?

Open Internet Options and go to Advanced tab

Scroll down in the TreeView control and tick "use Inline AutoComplete"

Click OK

 

 

Good Luck, Ayush.
