1349213 2013-07-18 02:53:00 The temp job I am working is coming to an end. I have been using Google Chrome and somehow I signed-in to my account, which of course put all my bookmarks and auto-completed forms up ready to use. I also signed-in to my outlook.com mail account.

The PC is on a network across many physical locations. I was supplied with a generic login and password which the next temp will probably use too.
I'm using a Windows XP pro desktop. I don't know what info is stored locally, or over the network.

I tried signing-out, the top-right settings tab now gives me the option to sign-in, but not to sign-out. But my bookmarks are still visible, so anyone can still use them.

How do I completely flush my google account/profile details before I leave?

1349214 2013-07-18 03:34:00 Have a read of the various sections HERE (support.google.com) - I don't normally use the save password, user options, but I tried it on iron Browser ( a throw off from Chrome) and it worked perfectly, both saving and able to delete stored information. wainuitech (129)

Then if you really want, you can delete that profile and make a new one:
Scroll down in the settings to "Users" and click on "Delete this user".

Easy :)

You signed out of it in the browser, but the browser-based sync stuff is still active which you've not turned off.

As always, if you're on a PC that you're not wanting to retain your info, push Ctrl + Shift + N for a new Incognito Window. That's the easiest way...
