Firefox 146.0.1

In Settings>Search>Firefox Suggest, I have enabled:

"Suggestions from Firefox"

But, when I type in the search box, no suggestions appear. For instance, if
I type "olymp", I expect many suggestions for the olympics (or something similar), but nothing pops up. If I type in the enire word "olympics", still nothing.

Any ideas.

Suggestions from Microsoft is for selling you stuff. It is not for
suggesting search items!

Those are my settings in 147.0.4, also choosing DuckDuckGo... and
"olymp" and "olympics" (and any other words/phrases) populate with suggestions...
You are hitting *enter/return* on your keyboard?

Suggestions should appear without hitting 'enter'.

(On another machine, I have Firefox 115.31.0esr running, and it works like
it should.)
