Search history from address bar
First, i am talking about this feature: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/awesome-bar-find-your-bookmarks-history-and-tabs?esab=a&s=search+address+bar&r=3&as=s
This awesome bar is not working properly. It used to remember everything i browsed, but now it doesn't remember if i didn't enter that site from the address bar.
For example i enter the youtube, watch a video. Later when i try to watch this video again, i wrote the title on the address bar but it doesn't show anything. When i write youtube it gets only youtube.com, not the video that i watched.
BUT, if i watch this video by copying the exact video link to the address bar, it remembers it when i later write its title.
I tried reseting firefox, didn't work. Please help, this feature was the reason i use firefox.

What is the current setting for the location bar?
- Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Location Bar: When using the location bar, suggest: History, Bookmarks, History and Bookmarks, Nothing
- https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Location+bar+autocomplete
You can check these prefs on the about:config page and possibly reset them via the right-click context menu to the default value:
- browser.urlbar.autoFill
- browser.urlbar.autocomplete.enabled
- browser.urlbar.maxRichResults
