Chrome Omnibox History Hider Extension

Chrome extension designed to prevent search history being forcefully displayed in the omnibox since the Chrome update in 2020. Absolutely infuriating feature that Google provide no means to disable. That's where this extension comes in.

Search history itself is unaffected and still accessible via the \"usual\" methods. This extension simply prevents previous searches being displayed in the omnibox.

Martin Moores (ID: 000000c93c305215) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 04/11/2022 THANK YOU How on earth are there not more people using this extension. There is nothing online about Chrome disabling the ability to stop omnibox history, I've been going mad trying to find the setting to stop it. What the hell are they thinking!!
