The shortcut of typing in a web site then hitting ctrl +
enter to automatically enter the http:// & .com no longer
works. When I hit ctrl + enter after typing in a web
site, it searches for the web site through a search
engine. How do I get the shortcut back? Thanks.
 
Hi,
Run regedit and check this key
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ CurrentVersion\ Explorer\
AutoComplete

In the right pane the string values should be
"Append Completion"="yes"
"AutoSuggest"="no"
"Use AutoComplete"="yes"

Right-click and modify any values which aren't correct.

If you are not comfortable with regedit, please export the registry before
making the change. Just select (highlight) My Computer (in the regedit
window) then Registry, then Export. Doubleclicking that reg file will
restore the previous registry and undo any changes you've just made.
