The browser URL autocomplete has started behaving differently starting yesterday.
I used to access my top urls by typing the first one or two letters of a URL then pressing enter. Now, I have to visually fish for the right one and push the down arrow to select the url. Big difference.
Anybody know if I can get the old functionality back somehow? Have I messed a setting?
Example of how my browser used to work:
Gmail.com:
CMD + L
Type G
Enter
Stackoverflow.com
CMD + L
Type S
Enter
Normally, the browser bar would already be highlighted with gmail.com
after typing the first g
. It would narrow the matches depending on what characters were typed next, or simply go to it if I pressed enter.
UPDATE: I just realized my history tab looks suspicious. No entries
But clearly Chrome is pulling some data from my history, as I have very personalized recommendations when typing in a letter.
chrome://flags
? Orchrome://settings
? It's working fine here, on Stable & dev channels
