You know the site yotube.com right, it is a spam "Youtube" site that says you won an iPad every time you type less a "u". Everytime when I want to go to Youtube.com, when I type "yo", it automatically fill in "yotube.com" and I had to type every character in the address bar to go to youtube, same as "outliik.com". I know I'm lazy, but is there a way to delete the auto fill in history?

Since after my suggestions you were unable to properly google the answer I've googled it for you. The link is here to summarize highlight the auto-correct and hold shift delete. It goes bye bye.

Googled lots, and never found this trick. Then tried the shift-delete. This makes it disappear from the list, until you start typing the next time, and it comes right back. I guess Firefox has broken this fix. Anyone have any other way to actually totally and completely remove it from the "hidden history" Firefox is evidently keeping? (other than remove the entire profile, and spend 2 hours getting the 'new and improved' phone-style gui back to useable, again).– JosephKSep 24, 2015 at 15:22
