I have a localhost setup on my machine and it sits under 8888 port, so the addresses are http://localhost:8888/ but when I start typing 'loc' in the url bar the 'localhost/' appears instead of 'localhost:8888/' even if in the dropown there's no similar results.

I've searched the history and haven't found anything without the port number after localhost.

I've tried to disable the items in the preferences under the Privacy > location bar one by one and it didn't help because if whichever one item is selected (no matter if it's history, bookmarks or tabs) it keeps doing the same.
