IE7 Forms Auto Complete Stopped Working

I’ve deleted by mistake the registry key:

Software/Microsoft/Internet Explorer/IntelliForms/Storage1

As a result, IE7 Auto-Complete stopped working.

I tried to fix the problem by recreate the deleted keys under IntelliForms:

Create new Key: Storage1

Create new empty Value: C6FB044EC2BD401521D6B1082276415638196D8004

It didn’t work for me.

How can cause IE7 to renew the Auto-Complete mechanism

I had the exact same problem with passwords and user-names refusing to be remembered by the IE7 supplied with Vista.

The only solution I found was to creat a new Account and copy the account settings over from old to new.

Something like this:-

Firstly. create a new account under Control Panel, User Accounts - give it administrator rights. Log on in the new account.
	On the desktop, right-click My Computer, and then click Properties.
	Click Advanced System Settings in the left-hand pane
	Click User Profiles - Settings Select the OLD User and click Copy to
	In the Copy To dialog box, click Browse. Browse to the root location of the new user account that you created. (i.e. where all your documents, downloads etc would be located)
	Click OK.
	It took about 10mins to copy over my account and it did NOT copy my email account info' to Outlook 2007 When all was done it started to prompt me again in IE7 for passwords etc AND remembered them!

I don't think you need to re-create the key. I tried to delete the same key. And when I disabled and then re-enabled the autocomplete in Internet Options, AutoComplete came back.

That was my ultimate solution, too. Now, all is OK.

Interestingly, I also noticed that Outlook wouldn't work properly when I was having this problem with IE autocomplete. Outlook was apparently unable to manage the password for the IMAP connection to my mail server, so it kept re-prompting me for the username and password. A network trace showed that each time it was trying to log into the IMAP server using an empty password, even though I kept typing one in to the prompt dialog.

I'm also having a problem where IE7 suddenly acts as if no auto-complete items have been saved, and creating new ones seems to have no effect; I am always being prompted for the same entries at the same sites.

I have verified the settings in IE7 and verified that Protected Storage service is running.

Are there any other steps I can take
