Almost all modern web browsers come with "Inline AutoComplete" feature which automatically fills the matching URL in addressbar as soon as you start typing text in browser addressbar. This feature is quite handy and saves lots of time.
Did you know the same "Inline AutoComplete" feature also exists in Windows Explorer and Run dialog box? That's true. Windows has this functionality built-in but doesn't come with this option enabled by default.
In this tutorial, we'll tell you how to enable this useful "Inline AutoComplete" feature in Windows Explorer and Run dialog box.
Following are a few screenshots which will help you in understanding this cool feature:

So without wasting time, lets start the tutorial:
1. To enable this feature, you'll need to open Internet Options window. You can open it using Control Panel or Internet Explorer.
Or directly launch it by providing inetcpl.cpl command in RUN or Start Menu search box.
2. Now go to "Advanced" tab, scroll down a bit and enable "Use inline AutoComplete in Windows Explorer and Run Dialog" option.
PS: In Windows XP, the option is a little bit different. You'll need to enable "Use inline AutoComplete (Outside of Internet Explorer)" option. Thanks to our reader "Shanmukh" for mentioning it.
3. Apply the changes and enjoy the inline AutoComplete feature in Windows Explorer and Run dialog box.
If you want to disable the feature again, simply uncheck the checkbox mentioned in step 2 and apply the changes.
NOTE: If you want the opposite and want to disable inline AutoComplete feature in Internet Explorer, disable the option "Use inline AutoComplete in the Internet Explorer Address Bar and Open Dialog" as shown in the above screenshot.
