Address bar sending to wrong URL

That's not to mention that it has the tendency to forget urls that i know i've visited quite regularly.
Following up on this. Went to go to a youtube page that i know that i've visited within the past week. Type in some letters of the URL - nothing!!
Go to the YT page via google and it shows i've watched 4 videos over the past month. Why the address bar can't find them in the history or address bar typed urls/frequent or whatever is boggling.
I've got history set to purge after 3 months, but as above, it's been a week. Makes no sense.

Hi, the list is limited to 15 entries or so but 4?

Nothing to do with the amount shown in the dropdown. The 4 was referring to the YT page showing the watched indicator on the thumbnails. Which means they should have been in history and/or show up in the dropdown.

Hi, I still not understand.
I watched 5 YT videos about Peter Ustinov over the last 2 weeks.
If I type ustinov in the address field I get exactly this 5 links shown in the dropdown.
Can you find those directly in the history? -

Yes.
As shown in the address bar, part of the url is typed but nothing is showing in the dropdown.
Note that this only shows when I use the "Search all history" button. If that isn't clicked, then those hits don't show.
Regardless of that, it doesn't make sense seeing as most of those are within the past week or so.

Can you show me the address bar settings?
All other entries in the priority list are disabled.

Not sure what you might glean from that though. Also these settings haven't been touched for a while.... like a long while. If it was working previously, there's no good reason why it shouldn't still be. But odd things do happen.
Have also tested with all those options on/off. Same result.

Hi, by default all settings are enabled but this seems not to change anything for you.
I am sorry but I have no idea why this is not working for you.
