I restarted my computer and suddenly there is NO autofilling of websites. When I type letters into the search bar, I get no results. Nothing. Not previous websites visited or "predictions" like typing in "go" and having Firefox predict "google.com".

Already tried disabling all add ons, no good. Please help.

Hi, make sure that you aren't using Private Browsing, and that History isn't turned off. Also make sure that 'Provide search suggestions' is selected.

If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.

UPDATE: I downgraded to FF 42.0 and it works fine, so clearly this has something to do with FF 43.0.
