Searching from the url address window has stopped working

If I type a string in the url address bar and touch enter, I now get an error message saying that it's not a valid web address: "The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded." It no longer searches in google for results. I've checked my about:config settings and they seem fine; keyword.url status is "default" and type is "string" with a blank value; for keyword.enabled, the status is "default", type is "boolean", and value is "true".

Hi,

You can also check browser.search.defaultenginename which has to be Google in this case.

If problems persist you can use SearchReset.

about:config Entries

The Config Descriptions add-on adds helpful source comments in about:config.

Thank you, that worked!

You're welcome :)
