Firefox Community Forum

With the latest update I get search suggestions in the search bar. I want to use my bookmarks. How can I turn off this feature?

In the example, I typed dict and got dictionary.reference.com, while the bookmark I wanted was just ductionary.com. Thank you.

Every time I carry out a search (on Google or on DuckDuckGo), after I have my Google or DDG results I find a tab has been created with Britannica offering a result for the search. I never installed Britannica and I don't want it to appear - I want to remove Britannica from my system altogether. But I don't have a Britannica app in my Settings list of apps and I never intstalled it. It's like a virus. Can anybody help me to get rid of it?

Can any one tell me how I can prevent Amazon coming up in any search results. I did have it blocked with a Copernic Agent programme, but that is not longer available. Since Amazon are the worlds biggest data thieves, I don't want them appearing here.

Somehow AP (news) has started showing up in the firefox menu bar. I'd like to delete it since I don't use it. It's not in my settings under search, nor can I just delete it by right clicking the menu bar. Can you help? Thanks, Stephanie

How do I change the site addresses that come up when I click the address bar? Time was I got a list of sites that I use often, perhaps several time in a day. I still use those sites but some have been replaced by addresses that I've used once or twice and probably won't use again for months. Where's the sense behind identifying as a "favourite" something I use twice in a week but not again and throwing out something I use week in and week out. How do I get rid of these interlopers?

I've come back to Firefox for the first time since Chrome launched! Manifest V3 basically killing Ad Blockers was the last straw.

Anyway, I'm having an issue with Firefox and I can't figure out why - when I type in the start of a URL, it's sometimes suggesting sites that I've never visited / don't have book marked etc.

For example, if I type in d it automatically puts in dotesports.com - I've never visited this site, it's not bookmarked etc so I don't understand why it's being populated instead of sites I do visit that begin with the letter d. Please see attached screenshot Firefox D.

I've tried fiddling with my search settings, but it's not made a difference. Please see the attached screenshot.

I've checked my extensions, but they're all pretty standard / well known ones and none of them would be altering the search bar like this. I've attached a screenshot of my extensions.

Additionally, when I start typing in gm (expecting it to autofill gmail.com) it never seems to do so, even though it's one of my most visited websites. It doesn't have this problem with other websites I frequently visit, only gmail - any idea why this is / how I can fix it?

I have ZERO interest in google features recently FORCED on my by an "upgrade"

show trending search suggestions

this is both checked and non-modifiable

Why?

I do not want this. How do I disable this evil setting?

Why is it when I want to go to a different website, such as youtube.com or google.com, the bar will autofill because I've been to those websites multiple times. But after going to spotify.com numerous times, the autofill never shows up and I have to manually type in the whole "spotify.com" because the web search bar thinks I've never been there before. Why is that and can I fix it?
