Using Chrome’s Autofill tool can make entering information like addresses and card numbers quicker and easier.

It stores your contact info, payment details, and email addresses for fast form filling. But what if that information changes or you no longer want it saved?

Let’s say your bank issued a new card or you updated your email address.

Here’s how you can manage, update, or delete this saved information from Google Chrome:
