get_IsGeneralAutofillEnabled

IsGeneralAutofillEnabled controls whether autofill for information like names, street and email addresses, phone numbers, and arbitrary input is enabled.

public HRESULT get_IsGeneralAutofillEnabled(BOOL * value)

This excludes password and credit card information. When IsGeneralAutofillEnabled is false, no suggestions appear, and no new information is saved. When IsGeneralAutofillEnabled is true, information is saved, suggestions appear and clicking on one will populate the form fields. The default value is TRUE.

            CHECK_FEATURE_RETURN(m_settings4);

            BOOL enabled;
            CHECK_FAILURE(m_settings4->get_IsGeneralAutofillEnabled(&enabled));
            if (enabled)
            {
                CHECK_FAILURE(m_settings4->put_IsGeneralAutofillEnabled(FALSE));
                MessageBox(
                    nullptr, L"General autofill will be disabled after the next navigation.",
                    L"Settings change", MB_OK);
            }
            else
            {
                CHECK_FAILURE(m_settings4->put_IsGeneralAutofillEnabled(TRUE));
                MessageBox(
                    nullptr, L"General autofill will be enabled after the next navigation.",
                    L"Settings change", MB_OK);
            }

get_IsPasswordAutosaveEnabled

IsPasswordAutosaveEnabled controls whether autosave for password information is enabled.

public HRESULT get_IsPasswordAutosaveEnabled(BOOL * value)

The IsPasswordAutosaveEnabled property behaves independently of the IsGeneralAutofillEnabled property. When IsPasswordAutosaveEnabled is false, no new password data is saved and no Save/Update Password prompts are displayed. However, if there was password data already saved before disabling this setting, then that password information is auto-populated, suggestions are shown and clicking on one will populate the fields. When IsPasswordAutosaveEnabled is true, password information is auto-populated, suggestions are shown and clicking on one will populate the fields, new data is saved, and a Save/Update Password prompt is displayed. The default value is FALSE.

            CHECK_FEATURE_RETURN(m_settings4);

            BOOL enabled;
            CHECK_FAILURE(m_settings4->get_IsPasswordAutosaveEnabled(&enabled));
            if (enabled)
            {
                CHECK_FAILURE(m_settings4->put_IsPasswordAutosaveEnabled(FALSE));
                MessageBox(
                    nullptr,
                    L"Password autosave will be disabled after the next navigation.",
                    L"Settings change", MB_OK);
            }
            else
            {
                CHECK_FAILURE(m_settings4->put_IsPasswordAutosaveEnabled(TRUE));
                MessageBox(
                    nullptr,
                    L"Password autosave will be enabled after the next navigation.",
                    L"Settings change", MB_OK);
