I cant seem to delete certain search suggestions that appear when I click on a URL in the Firefox browser. I've tried deleting bookmarks etc. but one item (linkedin profile) stays pinned somehow. See image. Anyone got an idea how to delete this?

That could be the form filler built into Firefox. Click in the field, enter a character or two and STOP ! Using the arrow keys, highlight an unwanted entry. Then press Shift + Delete

Repeat as needed.

Thanks FredMcD. Sadly it did not work. Shift + Del doesn't do much. When I type a character the entry I want to delete also disappears.
