AutoComplete Address

A

Andrew Schlein

Hi. Recently, when I try to send an email and begin to enter an address in
the To: box, Outlook offers an address that is not in my Contacts list and
is, in fact, an incorrect address.
I need to know where this address might be coming from and how to get rid of
it.
I cannot find a .NK2 file.
Please help.
Thanks,
Andrew

The next time you see it, highlight it and hit the Delete key

Remove individual addresses from the autocompletion cache by highlighting
the entry when presented in the suggested names list (use your arrow key to
migrate to the entry) and then hitting your Delete key before you tab out of
the field. If your autocomplete list contains only a single entry, use the
directions here:

To clear the entire cache, follow the instructions here:

Did you highlight it in the dropdown (not in the To field itself)
