Is there a fix or workaround?

This is the 3rd time I have had to post this. I am getting very frustrated. I DO NOT want the search engine within my address bar. Nothing anyone from you "community" helped to disable the search engine in my address bar. Opera, Edge, Chrome, the user can disable the search engine in the address bar. Why is Firefox so different? And difficult?

Mozilla, in their infinite wisdom, sent me a note about something new in firefox, by displaying it in a new instance of Firefox.

It wasn’t until I closed my normal session, that I realised a new instance of firefox was also running, and shut it down on.

In shutting the new instance down after my usual session, it overwrote all my normal tab settings🤬

Q1. Are my normal tab settings recoverable? Q2. Why did Mozilla think it a good idea to open a new instance of Firefox to send me information, rather than simply open a new tab.

NB This is in Windows 11

Hi this can anyone shed anylight on this please? I was using Facebook earlier today with no problem then now it won't run nor open yet it runs fine in Google Chrome. I've cleared out the Cookies ect and re-tried but its not pitching anything.

Many thanks Rob

Why when I search ABOUT:BLANK TAB, an empty page displays instead of the site I am searching for? I then have to go back and try again and again until it finally displays.

Cleared Cache, searched for extensions and not sure what to look for...they were verified by apple to be "normal". What else? Macbook Air 2023 running Sonoma 14.8.1

When I select a line of text, normally it would get deleted/overwritten when typing a new line of text, but when I select text in Firefox and begin typing again, it simply deletes the first word in the selection and keeps the rest. Is there a setting to have ALL text selected deleted/overwritten when new text is entered? Selecting one word overwrites the whole word but when an entire line to be deleted is selected, only the first word is deleted and typing begins where that word ends.

There seems to be a glitch that I keep encountering when trying to sign in through my TV provider, particularly Verizon, to watch DisneyNOW or TCM or any other service for that matter. The website known as "ssoauth.verizon.com" seems to keep hanging on the message "Please wait - we are verifying your account," and the sign in never gets completed. I already tried clearing my cache and history but with no result.

Even trying to submit troubleshooting information is causing the form to crash here. If you would like, I can send you a text file containing the log I saved from the browser console.

Hi,

The Linked in pages are not appearing properly.

I have attached the images of the following two pages,

Please arrange to do the needful.

Hi

I need to block some sites through the OS Hosts file, Other browsers ( Edge, Chrome, .. ) are honoring the HOSTS file rules but Firefox bypassing them !! , I disabled the DNSOverHTTPS and all other available suggestion and options but still not honoring the hosts file !

as you can see in the attached file, the Firefox DNS Section is now blank ! but still doesn't follow the OS host file

I even made a custom policy file but still doesn't work, these are the things I disabled but still not working :

{

 "policies": {
   "DNSOverHTTPS": {
     "Enabled": false,
     "Locked": true
   },
   "Preferences": {
     "network.trr.mode": {
       "Value": 5,
       "Status": "locked"
     },
     "network.dns.native_https_query": {
       "Value": false,
       "Status": "locked"
     },
     "network.trr.uri": {
       "Value": "",
       "Status": "locked"
     },
     "network.trr.bootstrapAddress": {
       "Value": "",
       "Status": "locked"
     },
     "network.trr.exclude-etc-hosts": {
       "Value": true,
       "Status": "locked"
     },
     "network.dnsCacheEntries": {
       "Value": 0,
       "Status": "locked"
     },
     "network.dns.disableIPv6": {
       "Value": true,
       "Status": "locked"
     },
     "browser.fixup.dns_first_for_single_words": {
       "Value": true,
       "Status": "locked"
     },
     "keyword.enabled": {
       "Value": false,
       "Status": "locked"
     }
   }
 }

My Mozilla log-in address is an old one - I have changed my email provider from xxxxxxx@TalkTalk.net to xxxxxxx@outlook.com. Although I can still get into Mozilla I can't change my log-in to make other updates. The advice provided is to make a new extra login and then make that one the primary but it does not work.
