How to prevent autofill of previous data in ASP:Textbox?

I have 2 simple controls. When my page loads, it automatic fills up.

enter image description here

I got following reference which suggests to set Autocomplete = Off

Stop browser from filling textboxes with details

https://forums.asp.net/t/1107643.aspx?How+do+you+disable+history+info+on+a+textbox+

But it doesn't work. You can see above screenshot. It is email field which automatically filled by reference of cache when page loaded. It is going to be headache.

Can anybody please suggest me how to prevent this?

Please note, I don't want to clear history. I just want that this should not be filled up when my page loads.

<SfTextBox Type="InputType.Password" Placeholder="Enter Password" InputAttributes="@(new Dictionary<string, object> { { "autocomplete", "new-password" } })"
    @bind-Value="userDto.Password">
this worked for me

Adding autocomplete="new-password" will solve your problem. I have tried autocomplete="off" and autocomplete="false" both did not work for me. This works perfectly autocomplete="new-password"

You cannot disable the autofill programatically. It is browser behaviour, and it differs per browser. You can disable it per browser, but that is up to the client.

According to this answer, you can add hidden dummy textboxes before the actual ones to throw off the autocomplete.

<input style="display:none" type="text" name="fakeusername"/>
<input style="display:none" type="password" name="fakepassword"/>

I am not sure, but this could be done by the browser. In IE11, there is this setting:

Autocomplete Settings in IE11

Maybe it helps to delete the AutoComplete history and disable AutoComplete.

Happy DNNing! Michael
