    In the Windows Search for Files and Folders function, how do I clear the drop down list of successful searches that appears below the field "Search for files or folders named: "?

    The drop down list appears if you type a character string that is the same as the start of previous successful search.

    Steve P--You can delete them individually by clicking the down arrow until you highlight the one you don't want, then Delete.
    I think you can clear all of them at one time from IE Tools|Internet Options|Content tab|AutoComplete|Clear Forms.
