I want my previous search bar method back. Update changed how search bar works now and I hate it!

Most current Firefox update changed how search bar functions. This should NOT be automatically done without warning a person about changes. I am having problems using this new method of searching and I hate it. I want the previous method back. A contributor tried to help, I guess. But what he suggested did not work. I can't correct thru About Firefox. A window pops up and does nothing. About Firefox does nothing, but looks at me. I don't know how to get into Firefox configuration. I appreciate the-edmeister trying to help me, but nothing has changed. Does anybody out there know how to give me back my old search bar???

It's not About Firefox, it's about:config as explained here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1035119
