Address Bar Search Bugs


Description of the issue:

When searching certain terms using the address bar, instead of giving me the search result, Brave takes me directly to a website featuring the search terms. This happens for certain terms. Most recently, I search for model rocket and several times in a row, I click enter, Brave takes me to the model rocket page of the Hobbylinc website. I just tried it again while writing this and it takes me to google search results as it should. This occurred several weeks ago on the same computer and browser. I’ve since cleared my browser data, but that clearly doesn’t do anything.

Also, occassionally when doing a multi word search using the address bar, only the first word will turn up in the search results and the rest of the phrase is missing.

**Brave Version (check About Brave):**Brave 1.81.131 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Operating System: Windows 11

Unless there is a particular command that must be used in the URL address field . . . I always recommend using the Search Engine’s Search Field.

Lots of tips, re using Brave Search:
