Solved Address bar auto-complete has been ruined
-
I installed 5.6.2839.3 as a standalone and confirmed the issue is still present. I already can't believe this wasn't caught in testing before 5.5.2805.35 was released but now there have been multiple updates without a resolution. This is now approaching a level of extreme frustration.
VB-92493 is the bug report number. If this has been flagged as fixed there's something very wrong.

2861.3 still doesn't fix it.
it's really good to see the developers are taking this issue seriously.
and don't please tell me to report an issue @DoctorG because i already did, weeks ago; the issue isn't that the devs don't know about it, it's that the PMs don't care about it. -

wait a second, @DoctorG is only trying to help YOU with YOUR issue, a bug can be reported multiple times as there are regressions, in this browser especially I saw bugs getting fixed and reappered multiple times in the years, so if needed, you HAVE to report a bug again when it reappears.

Who's talking about a reappearance? We're talking about a bug that has surfaced; it was never fixed and it never regressed. I shouldn't need to raise a case for an issue I've already raised if its status never changed. And why are you attempting to relitigate this after the good doctor and I already reached a resolution?
-
@5eagull I have just underlined the importance of reporting issues, I am free to comment on this forum as much as you are. When I replied I didn't notice the discussion went further, it wasn't my intention to "relitigate" anything, probably it was one of those occasion where I should have minded my own business.

Already reported a month ago: VB-92493

@nelliott500 I reopened your tracker report.
I hope someone can check this. -
The Monday snapshot (2867.29) finally fixes search suggestions.
The release notes say "Autocompletes search suggestions and titles from browsing history", but the latter is still a bug. The address bar will still autocomplete page titles if you type them in; it should only do this for URLs.
Issue logged as VB-93420. -
Definitely not fixed in 5.6.2867.29. This is beginning to hit a level of frustration that I may not come back from. Not only is the address bar still autocompleting based on the last URL visited on a domain but the damn browser window is still missing its border. Bugs that hinder productivity need to be fixed!
-
It's 2022 who types into a URL bar? That's like a baby's game.

@AshSimmonds not sure if snarky comment, or actually means it.
what do you do instead of typing?
