Go step by step and test.


1. Quit Safari, launch Safari holding the Shift key down.


2. Safari > Preferences > Search > Search Engine 

    Uncheck the box beside “Include search Engine Suggestions

3. Clear History

    Please read the article before clearing history, 

    this is like a low level resetting of Safari without affecting passwords and bookmarks.


4. If Safari doesn't open a webpage or isn’t working as expected
