Google Search History no longer showing

Hi

To be honest, I'm not sure if this is exclusive to Firefox as the same problem is happening in Chrome as well. I'm pretty sure it was working earlier, but at some point this evening the Google search box is no longer displaying my search history when I click in the box. If I type something similar to what I've searched for, those searches show. But before, the most recent searches would appear just from clicking inside the box, like in the saved image.

I've tried various things, but nothing is working. I don't appear to be in Incognito mode and I've checked the relevant options are enabled. Remember History is on and I've cleared the cookies for Google.com and Google.co.uk and signed back into my account, but nothing appears to be working. I've even tried restarting Windows (11).

Full screenshot helps to see what others know what page your using to do the search or search url. Cropping doesn't help see what your doing to for others to know where or what is happening.

This could be a problem with the TLS 1.3 Early Data feature also known as Zero Round Trip Time Resumption (0rtt). You can try to set security.tls.enable_0rtt_data = false on the about:config page to disable this feature until this is fixed by Google or Mozilla to see if that helps.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll give that a try the next time I'm on my laptop. :)

Oddly enough, the issue doesn't appear to be present on my PC, so whether it is an issue with Google and they've fixed it, I don't know. I'll have to see if the problem is still there when I next use my laptop.

Thanks

Sadly, that hasn't worked. :-\ I still have the issue on my laptop.

I've even tried deleting Firefox using RevoUninstaller and reinstalled it, but sadly, that hasn't worked either.
