My control+enter autocomplete function in internet explorer does not work...how can i fix it?

Just to bring everyone who doesn't know about this shortcut on board, CTRL+ENTER is a very useful shortcut. It puts 'http://www' before the text in the address bar and '.com' at the end. So if I want to visit 'http://www.microsoft.com' all I have to do is type ALT+D, microsoft, CTRL+ENTER.





If it doesnt' work for you, try the microsoft site and see how to enable it. http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/ie6/鈥?/a>








The better question would have been how to change what CTRL+ENTER does? Is that possible? Of course it is! To change it:





1. Create the following registry key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Int鈥?Explorer\Toolbar\QuickComplete.


2. Create the following registry value in the key above: QuickComplete REG_SZ http://www.%s.whatever


3. Whatever is in the address bar will be inserted where the '%s' is. This example would complete 'microsoft' to 'http://www.microsoft.whatever'.
