How do I stop chrome from auto completing search text in the search bar with previously searched text?
I can't figure out how to stop chrome from adding on words to things that i've typed before in the search bar. for example, i have searched for "navy beans nutritiondata.self" previously. Now whenever i start typing "navy bean"... it completes the thing I typed before, "navy beans nutritiondata.self", so I have to press back space in order to just search for "navy beans". I already turned off "use a prediction service to autocomplete text in the search bar, which was found under settings/advanced/privacy. Any help?

I just did. I saw a similar topic, but i don't think it was actually resolved, and they are trying to do something a bit different than me.
