Only show typed URLs in Address Bar
I am using Mozilla Firefox 41.0 version. I want URL bar to only show URLs I typed manually in it but it is showing all the URLs I have visited in the past.
In the past, I used to set property Browser.urlbar.default.behavior to 32 to achieve this. But this property is not available in version 41.0.

It looks like that combined preference was removed at some point, and you now need to modify individual preferences.
(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste URLB and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click as needed to toggle these values and see if that's what you want:
- browser.urlbar.suggest.bookmark => switch to false
- browser.urlbar.suggest.history => keep as true
- browser.urlbar.suggest.history.onlyTyped => switch to true
- browser.urlbar.suggest.openpage => switch to false
- browser.urlbar.suggest.searches => leave as false
Does that do it?
Maybe you don't want to disable bookmarks or open tabs, I'm not sure how the old setting worked.

Note that you can check an modify most of the browser.urlbar.suggest settings via "Options/Preferences > Privacy > Location Bar". The browser.urlbar.suggest.history.onlyTyped choice need to be changed directly as a pref The browser.urlbar.suggest.searches choice is present in Firefox 43 and later as "Show search suggestions in location bar results" in "Options/Preferences > Search" as part of the search settings.
