I always start my browser in private browsing (in privacy setting I enabled the option of never remember history) But I can't have any search suggestion when I try searching in the address bar.

Hi,

Search suggestions are disabled by default in Private Browsing mode. You must explicitly turn them on in a Private Browsing window to enable them in that mode.

This article shows you how to open a new private window :

Seperate issue :

Your system details show that you need to update your Adobe Flash Player - you're running a very old version, which can cause problems. Would you please uninstall your current version and install the latest version, which is 28.0.0.161

Note : some 'extras' may be offered in the download.
