  1. Windows 10 CMD autocomplete (quick edit mode) only shows spaces


    Hi,


    When using Command Prompt, I expect when I type cd Doc and press the Tab key, the console should complete to "cd Documents"


    Instead, it will place the correct number of spaces, but not actually insert the text of the command, such as "cd Doc "


    If I don't start typing first, it will 'cycle through' the available options (I can see the cursor moving to different lengths, some longer and some shorter than the previous).


    I've checked the cmd properties and quick edit mode is enabled. It has worked in the past, and I'm not sure exactly when it stopped working.


    I have other versions of CMD installed as part of other dev projects, like the Node.js CMD.


    Some work fine, like git bash and Windows PowerShell.


    Registry has:

    Windows 10 CMD autocomplete (quick edit mode) only shows spaces c82da322-7420-4b2d-afea-3871018f2146?upload=true.png


    I would very much like to get this resolved.


    Thanks,

    ~Ryan

  2. Edit metadata autocomplete list for pictures/music files

    I cannot find a way to delete/edit the autocomplete list displayed when editing the metadata on pictures. I get a list of previous entries (some of which are just plain junk) and would like to delete those as suggestions. I tried the steps with the following
    link and did not have any success. I do not have a AUTOCOMPLETE listing under "Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MediaPlayer".

    The locked thread for a similar question under Windows Vista:

    Edit autocomplete drop-down list for genre metadata in music files

    Thanks,

    autocomplete list in windows 10 mail app

    How do I remove an address in the autocomplete list in the Windows 10 mail app? I have a name that appears in the autocomplete list that I don't see in my Peoples app; thus I'm not able to delete the name by going to the Peoples app. The suggested autocomplete
    address is no longer an active address thus I would like it removed from the autocomplete list.

    How do I remove an address in the autocomplete list in the Windows 10 mail app?

    Original Title: windows 10 mail app auto complete error

    How do I remove an address in the autocomplete list in the Windows 10 mail app? I have a name that appears in the autocomplete list that I don't see in my Peoples app; thus I'm not able to delete the
    name by going to the Peoples app. The suggested autocomplete address was never an active address thus I NEED remove it from the autocomplete list. It was never a correct address merely misspelled by someone and this is as result of a reply all occasion.
