  I just tried it. It worked. Are we doing different things? 1. Clicked in the URL bar. 2. Started typing something. 3. Arrow-keyed down to one of the entries under “Firefox suggest.” 4. Tapped Shift+Del. The entry was gone and didn’t come back next time I typed the same thing in the URL bar.

    its a bug for people who have upgraded in the past (Im not sure how many upgrades I have gone through but its been years worth). The issue is not with URLs when you start to type (those I can shift+del) but rather when you have a new tab (or empty URL bar) and you click into the address bar, it prepopulates with a list of URLs from somewhere, probably an internal db. It is these suggestions that I cannot shift+del on. FWIW my Settings > Privacy > Address bar settings Browsing History selected & Shortcuts selected. The remainder are unselected.

      Another possibly unhelpful suggestion: find the site in your history, then right-click and select "Forget about this site"?

          Do NOT do this for any large domains like google by the way, unless you want to wait ten minutes and have all your google history/cookies wiped.
