Cursor goes to address bar instead of search bar

Dear Folks at Firefox, Mozilla


In last few days I really have a big problem with trying to browse with my favorite browser Firefox. It is that cursor always goes to address bar instead of search bar when I am trying to surf the web. I tried all the fixes that I found online with changing things in about:config still with no solution.

I am running on Windos 11 and using latest Firefox version.


Kind regards Aljosha Mileta

Hi Aljosha,

Unfortunately, I'm afraid you can't currently change that behavior. The team is working on implementing a modern embedded search UI for the New Tab.
