    Hi,

    In order to delete the contents of the auto-fill, please follow the below steps :

    • Go to https://cloud.acrobat.com/ and sign in with your credentials.
    • At the top right corner of the screen, you will see an dropdown with your username on it.
    • Click it and go to Settings.
    • Now you can either stop the auto fill suggestions by unchecking the “Suggest words….” checkbox or you simply press Clear All button and will clear all the auto fill entries which has been stored in your account.
    Please let me know in case of any concerns.
    Regards,
    Sandeep Grover

    So update to anyone who needs this... the entire profile folder does not appear to need to be deleted, rather it seems to clear the cache if you delete these three files located in:

    C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Acrobat\DC\Security

    named "reader_fss_signature_initials", "reader_fss_signature_initialsi", "reader_fss_signature_initialsk". Now if I can get them not to be generated in the first place...

    This is absurd! I have spent hours trying to get Acrobat Reader DC to stop autofilling sensitive information like my SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER on just any old sheet. The supposed resolution here is irrelevant, I'm using Acrobat on my computer and the autofill entries are stored locally on my computer, this has nothing to do with a cloud account. The suggestion by CB seemed to finally clear it, but also cleared my preferences, and it starts to accumulate suggestions again when I use Fill and Sign again. I need a way to turn this off permanently.
