Tabbing from URL box to search box should NOT highlight the search engine dropdown

  1. Enable the search box to the right side of URL box in browser UI.
  2. Open new tab (empty URL box).
  3. Press TAB.
  4. The search engine SELECTOR becomes highlighted, instead of the search INPUT.
  5. Web application software developer is blocked from typing search query right away.
  6. Must press ANOTHER TAB.
  7. This breaks the workflow. It never used to do this, you could type immediately after tabbing ONCE.
  8. Search is disabled in URL box to facilitate local domain resolution/error and NOT trigger fallback searching.

Please revert the behaviour to normal, and make the single TAB operation focus on the search INPUT.

some time ago I configured by thunderbird account to announce "You have mail" and it worked reliably until frontier moved email support to yahoo. Since then I get the "you have mail" announcement for a low percentage of new mail messages received. I contacted yahoo mail support and they responded that this is a problem with thunderbird and has nothing to do with yahoo. I suspect it's a matter of which process "sees" the new message first - thunderbird of yahoo mail. I've tried not having a yahoo mail window active, but that makes no difference. Most of the time now I get only a "gong" sound when a new mail message is received rather than "You have mail" voice notification.

I can setup the Calendar event, save it and see it in my Home Calendar along with the little bell icon in the top right hand corner which tells me the Calendar is aware of the notification request. I generally add a reminder for the Calendar event but just noticed that no actual reminders are being generated.

To install a Windows 10 update (I'm on extended support) I told it to update & shutdown. I fired it up this morning and Thunderbird is asking for credentials. It usually just runs & downloads emails. I enter my password, then a code from authenticator app. It shows the page below in an embedded browser window that has a checkbox and an "Agree" button. I check the box but the Agree button is still disabled. Dead end. I cannot connect & I'm stuck.
