Until recently, location bar autocomplete worked fine, but now, possibly following an upgrade, it is inactive. I think the relevant config is correct (it's all set to its defaults), but typing a URL into the location bar which I know I've visited (and which I can see in my history) does nothing.

Make sure that the Location Bar is not set to "Nothing": Tools > Options > Privacy > Location Bar: When using the location bar, suggest: History,Bookmarks,History and Bookmarks
