Version 148 recently installed as auto update and problem seems contemperaneous to that.

My Home page is set to show only the Firefox "search the web" as an entry box in the screen centre, but will no longer allow any input: instead the awesomebar (aka address bar) shows on the tool bars at top of screen and accepts/displays the entry. I wish to revert to the simpler display.

I thought the solution lay within the advanced preferences that can be accessed (via app:config) and the value of the awesome bar changed. However tthe awesomebar preference is the only one shown for which there is no setting at all. Edit brings nothing up. There is a delete bin symbol available.

Can anybody explain what is going on and how to rectify this situation, please?

Hi,

Sorry for the inconvenience. The team is working on implementing a modern embedded search UI for the New Tab.

It was decided to remove the legacy code to clean up space for the new one, but that decision was canceled due to accessibility reasons. You can expect the legacy UI to (temporarily) return in the near future.
