How do I stop Firefox from giving search suggestions in the address bar?
As of the newest update, if I start to type something into the address bar, I get random search suggestions as if I were the using the search bar instead. How do I disable this? It's kind of annoying and it really bothers me. I read in another article that if I went to about:config and checked 'I'll be careful,' it would stop, but I'm worried it may screw up my browser. Is there any other way to fix this? Or should i just move on to a superior browser?

No it won't cause any other problems as long as you don't modify any other preferences.

The issue looks like this
That's a new feature in Firefox 43. To turn it off do this:
- Go to about:config in Firefox
- Click the I'll be careful button
- Locate the browser.urlbar.unifiedcomplete boolean
- Change the value to false
Note: You may need to restart Firefox for the changes to take effect.

I know that, I also asked if doing that would also cause other problems on my computer.
