automatic opening of webpages after incomplete address entry

in the old version it was sufficient to enter "ebay" or similar into the web address bar. The system would automatically complete to "ebay.com" and open the desired webpage. Now I end up on a Google page as if I had entered a Google search. How can I enable this function again?
