When I go to the Firefox site, it says that "the address wasn't understood". What do I do?

There is no search area on the screen. Only that it doesn't understand the address and wants me to try again which doesn't help.

What web page address are you trying to open?

The default built-in home page is the about:home page.

You can check the home page setting.

Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' (pipe) symbols.

Do you see all toolbars and have the location/address bar and search bar on the Navigation Toolbar?

Can you attach a screenshot?

  • Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot
  • Make sure that you do not exceed the maximum size of 1 MB
