Location bar does not retain setting

OK, I'm and idiot. But, the location bar keeps reverting back to History instead of nothing. Someone had me edit a file when this happen a couple weeks ago, but I forgot the file and location. Sorry. Why is this a recurring problem and how can I set the Location bar to permanently stay on the "Nothing" setting?

Thanks again...
