I've tried googling around and haven't found any solutions although I've seen this question asked multiple times.

When I start typing words into my Firefox address bar I usually see some suggestions. I'd like to delete *specific* suggestions from there. When I'm sharing my screen I don't need my business contacts seeing certain embarrassing search terms. How do I do this?

To be clear, I don't want to turn off *all* suggestions. I don't want to delete my history. I don't want any of that. I just want to delete specific ones. In Chrome when this happens I simply hover over the specific suggestion and click X. It baffles me why Firefox didn't make it that simple as well.

You can use these steps to remove saved items from an autocomplete drop-down list.

  1. click the (empty) input field on the webpage to open the drop-down list
  2. highlight an entry in the drop-down list with cursor Down key
    do not click the mouse or press the Enter key
  3. press "Shift+Delete" (location bar) or "Delete" (form data) to delete the highlighted entry

Note that hovering with the mouse doesn't work.
