Hi Everyone, I've just installed (clean) version 115.0.2, and can't get back to my previous layout. The default engine is set to DuckDuckGo, and Privacy Essentials is installed too. Although the front page of FireFox shows a search box in the main body, when I type into it, the information is transferred to the DDG search box in the Toolbar. How can I get back to where things were before -- i.e. I could type into the main page box and DDG would happily search from there. Thank you,

Ian

Hi Ian, the hardest part is learning the name of this setting:

(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button accepting the risk.

More info on about:config: Configuration Editor for Firefox. The moderators would like us to remind you that changes made through this back door aren't fully supported and aren't guaranteed to continue working in the future. Since I use this one myself, I feel comfortable mentioning it.

(2) In the search box in the page, type or paste handoff and pause while the list is filtered

(3) Double-click the browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.improvesearch.handoffToAwesomebar preference to switch the value from true to false

Success?
