Anyone know how to get rid of an old screenshot showing up in the Google search bar? I accidentally took a screenshot of my home screen and now it's staying in my Google search bar every time I pull it up. The screenshot was deleted. I've cleaned my Google search history and it's still there. I have to click on it and delete it every time to search for anything. Annoying.

 
Also, I can no longer close Google and go to another screen to look for something and it still be there. I lose anything I was doing. It doesn't stay as an open app anymore like the others do. Anyone know how to fix this?

This looks like you were using Circle to search, try clicking the "X" in the top right corner, or restart the Google app

I've done that as well 😞 I've been going through all settings and not finding anything for Circles or Google Search Bar.

I even tried wiping the system cache and that didn't work.

Can you clear the data off the Google app or play services, if you do wipe to data of play services, you might need to re configure some things
