Is there no about:config in Firefox 59?
I updated to 59.0.2. There doesn't seem to be the editor "about:config". How does one configure version 59?

It's working now. I did something wrong, I just don't know what. Before, it was taking me to a Google search of "about:config".
If you type in "about:config" with the " " or about.config with a period instead of a : colon in the Location (address) bar then yes you may end up doing a search engine search with whatever is set as your default.
A easy about: url to remember is about:about (with a : colon) as it lists all the about urls valid for that version besides the about:config

Did you type in the address bar about:config and then press 'Enter' ?

That's probably because you typed about:config in the search bar, instead of the address bar.
'Glad you've got it working again !
