On a Chromebook, how do I selectively delete Search entries from the Omnibox

Question

What I already know:

• I have read about deleting URLs from the Omnibox on a Chromebook, that is use Shift+Delete (or Shift+Alt+Backspace on older chromebooks).
• I have also found a few articles about how to edit the Omnibox database from a browser other than Chrome on Mac, Linux, etc (Clear item from Chrome address bar autocomplete).

What I don't know:

• How do I delete a specific search entry from the Omnibox when I am on a Chromebook?

Limitations:

• If there's an extension for that, I prefer it be from someone I can trust.

Answer 1

I was having this same issue (I think). The Shift+Alt+Backspace wasn't doing anything on my Samsung Chromebook. Turns out I had saved the url as a bookmark (I'd bookmarked the page) and Chrome was using the bookmark to suggest autocompleting the url.

Deleted the bookmark and Chrome stopped suggesting it. Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Hold down Ctrl+Alt+Shift, then press Backspace.
