Here is an entry from Kelly's Corner. I don't understand the last line. I
presume that it refers to the registry, but I don't find such an entry.

Manual Edit: Go to Start/Run/Regedit and navigate to this key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Search Assistant\ACMru

To prevent keeping a history altogether, right click ACMru/Permissions/Deny
all users and groups listed.

Alternatively, IE/Search/Change Preferences/Turn AutoComplete Off.

As written, if you follow the last line it will create the entry in
the registry.

To follow up, open IE click on search (I don't use IE, My search is
default in the top bar) it opens a panel to Change Preferences and
Turn Auto Complete Off
 
Thanks very much. I also "discovered" the Search button on the Windows
Search page (with the same "Change Preferences" option.) I'd never noticed
it before.
