 I noticed this issue when upgrading Tor Browser 8.5.1 to 9.0. I do not
 know if the issue also occurs when using a newly extracted copy of Tor
 Browser 9.0.

 Steps:

  1. Extract Tor Browser 8.5.1 (32-bit) from the file `tor-browser-
 linux32-8.5.1_en-US.tar.xz`
  1. Open the `tor-browser_en-US` directory and launch Tor Browser Setup.
  1. Click Connect in the dialog box that talks about adjusting network
 settings for certain situations.
  1. Once the Tor Browser window (with the address bar) opens, choose
 "Check for Tor Browser Update..." from the onion menu.
  1. Tor Browser will download an update. Once the window indicates that
 the update will be installed when Tor Browser is restarted, click Restart
 Later and then close the Tor Browser window.
  1. In the `tor-browser_en-US` directory, launch Tor Browser.
  1. Once the Tor Browser window opens, click in the address bar.
  1. Type "s" (without quotes.)
  1. The history will contain the entry `place:sort=8&maxResults=10`
