When using the location bar, which is set to bookmarks only, unvisited, unknown websites are showing up. I keep no history and have no tagged sites. I have redone the settings to bookmarks only several times and have individually deleted these unwanted, unknown sites that I have never visited or searched. Is there a reason that the bookmarks only will not show?

Hello SElaine, probably you have a corrupted places.sqlite database file try to delete the places.sqlite file in profile folder , exit firefox re-open it and check it again.

(deleting the places.sqlite file will delete your browsing history, and a new, empty file will be created automatically)

thank you
