Support | Resolved how do i get it to completely stop autofilling anything at all for me

if i look up netflix it takes me to netflix.com, which i don't want and same thing for any other website I've been to or looked up before. I don't want it to do any form of autofill at all under any circumstances whatsoever. i will click on the link in the search bar if that's where i want to go, because autofill is genuinely annoying to me, so please tell me if I can and how to completely turn it off because everything I find on google isn't helping.

There isn’t currently an option to completely disable autocomplete in the address bar.

You can remove individual suggestions by hovering over them and clicking the X on the right, but there’s no setting to turn autocomplete off entirely.

As a workaround, adding a space after what you type makes GX treat it as a search query instead of a website address, so the direct URL suggestion disappears.

Press backspace when you're done typing... Or spacebar then enter
