Remove search from address bar,
Why isn't there a simple means to remove/prevent searches for the address bar, using config doesn't work.
I've used Firefox for over twenty years, this annoyance will end that and force a move to Brave.

If you mean you want to type on the new tab search bar and not have the typing continue in the address bar, then read https://old.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/1ec2hru/disable_address_bar_search/lewwfop/
If you mean you don't want the address bar to react while you are typing, then read https://old.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/i6ze35/how_to_completely_disable_search_in_the_address/g0z74np/
I'm not entirely sure what "Remove search from address bar" means.
Hello
wilf2, you didn't specify your version of Firefox.
Firefox advanced customization and configuration options. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-advanced-customization-and-configuration
Firefox is a work in progress and, to allow for continuous innovation, Mozilla cannot guarantee that future updates won’t impact these customizations.
A illustration.
If you're under Firefox 148, if the subject is about the preference, browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.improvesearch.handoffToAwesomebar. Creat the preference, browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.improvesearch.handoffToAwesomebar, is useless.
Since Firefox 148, browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.improvesearch.handoffToAwesomebar has been removed.
