How to personalize things like Toolbar, default Browser, etc

Hi!
I found some articles on what I think you're looking for:
- Customize Firefox controls, buttons and toolbars
- Manage Firefox search settings (scroll to "Default search engine")
- Make Firefox your default browser
- Change Firefox options, preferences and settings
Please let me know if this helps!

Thanks It should help but something is interfering.
I am frustrated. When I was following your helpful links I found that ASSISTANT is set to open links and that FIREFOX is set to DONT OPEN LINKS. I dont know how to change that all I know is about only rarely does Firefox open to my passwords and I waste an inordinant amount of time trying to get Firefox to handle my passwords and open apps.
I set ASSISTANT some time ago to FORCE STOP in a futile effort to get MY PHONE to operate as I choose and NOT AS GOOGLE CHOOSES TO INTERFERE. A bit of a rant not directed at you. WHY IS IT THAT THOUGH I PAID FOR AND OWN THIS PHONE BUT I CANT GET RID OF STUFF I DONT WANT LIKE GOOGLE INSTALLING ITS new meddlesome AI I forget the name. I HATE GOOGLE. End of rant. Im sick and should be asleep but yet again I am up all hours for problems with settings.
I have a link from my insurance company but I cant open it to access the offer because Firefox is set to not open apps so various other dirt bags take over.
I cant even remember what i was trying to do that got sidetracked and there arent enough wiñ dows open sufficient to take me back.
B4 my Apple computer died it was easier to get past google.
Theres not enough time in my day to deal with it. You wouldnt know Im retired because i have no freetime doing this that and the other.
I long for the day my phone was simple to use and IT ACTUALLY MADE PHONE CALLS to whatever contact I CHOSE.
THIS PHONE motorola stylus is a useless piece of junk due in no small part to OVERREACHING GOOGLE.
If I could save your post its very helpful but unlike my used to be Apple Computer my bookmarks menu is out of control and worthless
