I'm on version 131 on Linux. Even if I clear the hisotry entries in Ctr+H or Library Window->History tab, the search bar history still remains and I can view all my searches by clicking in the search bar and typing Ctr+Z. This history is only cleared when I close the browser and open it back up again.

Can anyone else reproduce this problem?

How can I just straight up disable this search bar history and how can I clear it without doing Clear Browsing data and cookies -> Everything?
