Issue descriptionUserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/52.0.2743.116 Safari/537.36 Steps to reproduce the problem: Type a search query into the Omnibox and press ENTER. What is the expected behavior? Perform the search. What went wrong? Sometimes a search is performed, and sometimes a navigation is attempted on something that is obviously not a URL or portion of a URL. Did this work before? N/A Chrome version: 52.0.2743.116 Channel: stable OS Version: 6.1 (Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2) Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 22.0 r0 Are there any documented rules for what will be interpreted as a search and what won't? Is it at all configurable?

Today, I entered "straitjacket" and Chrome resolved it to "straitjacket/" and displayed the error page.

Could you please replicate the same in a new profile where there are no apps/extensions and update the thread. You can create a new profile from chrome://settings

Both are currently searching for "straitjacket", but I've noticed a difference in the list of suggestions. Presumably this extra item in the original profile is sometimes getting ranked higher than the search and causing this problem to occur. Is there a way to get rid of it? Extensions present in the original profile: * Adblock Plus * Application Launcher for Drive (by Google) * Chromoji - Emojis for Google Chrome * Google Docs Offline * Google Play Music While I never installed any apps in either the original profile or the brand new profile, they both seems to have apps, and strangely each has a different set: Original profile: Web Store, Gmail, Google Search, YouTube, Google Drive, Play Music New profile: Web Store, Google Docs, Google Drive, YouTube, Gmail, Google Sheets, Google Slides
