Disable "Search with Google", browser.urlbar.unifiedcomplete False no longer working
I would like to totally get rid of the blue bar that pops up under the address bar. Previously, setting browser.urlbar.unifiedcomplete to False did the trick. I found that solution in this article https://www.askvg.com/tip-remove-search-with-google-and-visit-website-options-from-firefox-addressbar-results/ Now on Firefox 75 I realized it's not working. The blue bar shows up if doing a search, using a URL shortcut (alias) or doing a quick search. It's add no value to me and is just clutter. I've been using Firefox since it's release in the early 2000s and the plain jane address/search bar has always worked for me. How can I get rid of the blue bar?

Hi droidekas, the blue bar is simply explanatory: it tells you what Firefox will do if you press Enter or click the Go button at this moment. I understand when you say that experienced users don't need this information.
There hasn't been a browser.urlbar.unifiedcomplete
preference since Firefox 47, so perhaps you were using a custom style rule in a userChrome.css file to hide that top row of the drop-down in recent years?
I know I provided code for that in the past, but the new bar design in Firefox 75 may have obsoleted it. I think this might be the update to remove the top row, but I haven't tested for a while:
#urlbar-results .urlbarView-row:first-of-type { display:none !important; }
