Using Clear Browsing Data program deletes Autofill Data

Before the update of ms edge to version 99.0.1150.30 on 3-5-2022 and using the Clear Browsing Data program, Auto Form Data would not be cleared when unchecked. After the ms edge update to version 99.0.01150.30 and using the Clear Browsing Data program, Auto Form Data is cleared when unchecked. The previous ms edge version that did not clear Auto Form Data when unchecked was 98.0.1108.50. I verified on 3-5-2022 that the new update to ms edge was causing this problem because on my two other computers I ran the Clear Browsing Data program before allowing the new ms edge update and Auto Form Data was not cleared when unchecked. Does anyone know how to stop clearing Auto Form Data when unchecked when using the Clear Browsing Data program with the new ms edge update version 99.0.1150.30? I am using windows 7.
