I unchecked everything in address bar suggestions in the privacy settings. Went into the search settings and unchecked provide search suggestions as well. I tried to eliminate all search engines for "One Click Search Engines" but wasn't allowed to eliminate all of them. Also went in about:config and set to false the autofill and autocomplete for firefox URL browser lines. The "awesome bar" still mirrors everything below the address bar that I type in the URL address bar. This is new to version 65 and annoying.

hi, support for the browser.urlbar.autocomplete.enabled preference got removed in firefox 65 unfortunately.

as a workaround you could try creating a userChrome.css file with the following content in order to hide the addressbar dropdown-menu:

#PopupAutoCompleteRichResult {

  display: none!important;

}

horrible design decision, now I have to make changes outside the application? Starting to feel like some Microsoft employees are working here at Mozilla nowadays..

And on top of sticking users with a regression for no good reason, they give you completely misleading advice.

The right way is:

user_pref("browser.urlbar.maxRichResults", 0);

Really  ? The advice that was given by philipp worked for the OP of this thread ......

So it did. That does not contradict the fact that it is misleading.

Ubuntu forums are pretty much 100% filled with answers like this. I think you know what I mean.

I do want to apologize for the bit about Mozilla misleading their users. I didn't realize at that time the advice had been given by a volunteer.
