Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
- Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window or otherwise make changes.

No this did not help. I am lost without this feature. Anybody with any help for me would be greatly appreciated.Thanks much.
Try to use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.
Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
Current Firefox versions use the default search engine (pref: browser.search.defaultenginename) to set the search engine that is used on the about:home page.
Check the browser.search.defaultenginename pref on the about:config page and make sure that it is set to the default value Google.
- browser.search.defaultenginename
Currently selected search engine:
- browser.search.selectedEngine

Yes, this did work. In this spot it said AVG Secure Search. Why did the AVG work on 20.0.1 but wont work on the 21.0? And can I make the AVG search work on 21.0? Thank you so very much for your help. Very much appreciated.
