How to delete 1 history item from Chrome for Mac OSX

Here it says:

You can delete single suggestions in the address bar . For Mac OS X Highlight the URL with your arrow keys and then SHIFT+FN+DELETE. At least that has worked for me .

though it apparently only works when it feels to.

You must ensure that the item is not also in your bookmarks. Might seem obvious but yeah... if the entry is also in your bookmarks the attempt to SHIFT+FN+DELETE OR SHIFT+CONTROL+FN+DELETE will simply not work

Simply highlighting the item in the URL and pushing shift+fn+control+delete works!

With an external non-Apple keyboard (it has a Windows key) these steps worked for me:

Highlight the URL with your arrow keys and then Shift + Delete.

I guess the Fn from the other answers is only necessary for Apple keyboards?
