I somehow manage to change settings somewhere without realizing - perhaps with shortcuts - and now whenever I type into the search bar, it appears on the far left instead of the far right. How do I revert it back to how it was before?

Hi, in Firefox Ctrl+Shift+X switches between "left to right" and "right to left" in a form field. Try clicking in the address bar and pressing that keyboard shortcut to switch back to "left to right".

Success?

Note that you can happen if you accidentally also press the Shift key when doing a Cut (Ctrl+X => Crtl+Shift+X).
