Click, wait a moment, then click again.

Click, wait a moment, then click again.

This does not answer my question. I want to be able to insert the cursor with the first click. It was possible with Firefox < 75.0

Hello Nils,

Please see this Reddit thread :

https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/fjvqa3/firefox_75_url_bar_how_to_prevent_single_click/

And this bug report :

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1621570

IMHO :   FredMcD's suggestion is a great workaround.

Thanks for your answer. Very unfortunate that this behavior was removed intentionally. But looking at all the complaints in the issue thread I hope it will come back sooner or later...

You may want to check out this workaround which is a shell script that forces `clickSelectsAll = false` behavior.

See this answer on Super User for full context and an explanation of the script.

Firefox developers needs to learn that every change they make to the user experience will annoys people. Like this stupid Quantum bar i don't care at all, me also like just the way it worked in previous versions.

One time i choose Firefox as my main browser because it was aimed to advanced users and programmers that like to tweak things. But this browser annoys me more and more with suppit things like this.

Get your head around Firefox developers, users walk away because it's becoming a browser for idiots!

You can please all of the people some of the time . . . . .

Thank you for the hint. I use it already for many times.

Please don't get me wrong. But the world only gets better by people who care about something. Not the one that leaves things as they appear.

Me as an software developer thinks daily of making the world easier for us. When things come along that bothers me and i can argue why it needs to work another way, it feels like a duty to solve it.
