I am trying to clear search history in the address bar because it makes it very difficult to get the autocompleted pages I use regulary

I found the following article that says to:

click the down arrow, press the down button to select and highlight the entry, then press delete to delete it.

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/remove-websites-awesome-bar-suggestions#w_clearing-a-single-item-from-the-address-bar-history

But this straight up does not work.

I can highlight and delete and as soon as i start typing again, it refills the search history results i just deleted.

I've cleared all search history everywhere I can find and still the address bar is offering search results from past searches

How can I get rid of them?! Thank you.

Type about:preferences#privacy<enter> in the address bar. The button next to History, select Use Custom Settings.

Turn on Remember My Browsing And Download History At the bottom of the page, turn on Clear History When Firefox Closes. At the far right, press the Settings button. Turn on ONLY Cache and Form And Search History leaving the others off.
