Underscore at end of URLs with Google Chrome

When I type "go" in Google Chrome 41, I get "google.com_/" as a suggestion:

This happens for other websites, too. Does anybody have an idea why this happens and how I can remove those suggestions?

(I certainly never typed it)


Solution 1:

I've had the same issue with the underscore after urls in Chrome's search suggestion box. I'm not sure what causes it, but to remove them start typing the URL that has the issue in the URL box. When the suggestion shows up, press the down arrow on the keyboard to select it and press Shift + delete. For macOS users Fn + Shift + Delete.

Solution 2:

I found this SE question before I found the following article. Figured I'd update here in case anyone else has the same issue.

It seems there is (was?) a bug in Chrome with how search URL's are harvested. You have to manually clean up your search engines in Chrome's settings.
