My address bar search has changed and it's really annoying.
Hello.
Today, my firefox has changed something in the address bar search system.
Now the first link it provides is for "popular sites" or your partners no idea but it's boring as hell.
He destroyed all my combinations of site search...
When I wrote normally shortcuts like 'pwn' 'kol' 'da' for my sites now the first link provided to ask me "want to pwn/kol/da search in google? Dailymotion? »
No ffs I don't want that. If I wanted to, I would use the search bar.
I tried to fix it but can't find it in the normal options and won't play with the config of my own.
Where I can it turn off? I can't stand it.
You can set browser.urlbar.unifiedcomplete to false to remove the suggestion to visit the location bar page menu drop-down.
Note that the sound is not really new, but it has now enabled by default in Firefox 43.
You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.

Search bar default changes setting address bar search
In the past, I usually kept my search bar on IMDb, since I use that a lot, but I do Google search even more often, so I just type Google search terms into the address bar and hit < Enter >, which has always worked well. It was like having two bars at once, research which was totally awesome. However, having just "updated" Firefox about an hour ago, it now appears that selection of search from the address bar is now linked to the selection of the search bar. When I do a search with the address bar, search that results will invariably to whatever the choice lies in the search bar. I tried to go to topic: config and "reset" the setting of the browser.default.enginename, but he instantly changes to change the setting of the search bar. Please separate the address bar and the search bar back to the way they were before. It is extremely annoying.
Additional information:
I just drove my computer where I'm headed back with Firefox 22.0 and immediately corrected behavior itself, which only confirms that there is a problem with the update to the worm 23.0, so I guess I'm stuck 22.0 for now.

Address bar search does not work
When I type keywords in the address bar, it is used to return a list of google search results. He returns now, "the address is not valid. I know that I can use the search bar of google search, but the ability to search for keywords directly from the address bar is my favorite number one of Firefox and I want to.
The problem started after I got the keyword. URL parameter in topic: default config after malicious editing on some Russian site search/spam, which also added a bunch of unnecessary links to my bookmarks bar. This is the second time that this happens, no idea how, but the first time that I fixed it the address bar search began working again immediately.
I have not installed any new plugins or addons recently.
I checked that keyword.enabled is set to true, and the keyword. URL is empty, what are the default settings. Are there other settings that might have been changed/what I should change to make it work again?
You can try this add-on to see if it cures it: SearchReset
If this isn't the case, you could use this keyword. URL, which seems to be the default in Firefox 14 (just, based on what I receive under a search):
https://www.google.com/search?ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&channel=fflb&q= -
I had to reinstall all my programs and for some reason I have problems adding and maintaining my address bar search option as well as maintenance of my Google search engine. I deleted Yahoo 4 times in the search box and I went in: config to change the engine and the address bar search whenever I start Firefox. It will not stay on-site every day. Can anyone help with this?

Address bar search does not correctly
This road after FF4 update.
Example-
"Yahoo email" by typing in the address bar got right email in the yahoo page.
Now, after update, type 'yahoo email' in the address bar search in a regular google results, and I have to click on the link yahoo email.
Prior to 4.0, type "imdb" in the address bar, and imdb.com opens right.
Now type "imdb" in the address bar and regular search instead, just click on the imdb link.
All specific keywords specific research that directly match a pre-existing url (IMDb for IMDb.com, Yahoo News to news.yahoo.com, Volokh for volokh.com, etc.) no longer go directly on the site, but the result in a regular google search with results, requiring that extra click on the link.

To the right:
My name is Andrew Wissler. I have a Dell Inspiron 6000 running a 32-bit version of Windows XP Media Center with Windows Service Pack 3. I'm having a problem where if I try to type a name such as my videos in the address bar in my computer and press ENTER, it will not open. Instead, Windows Internet Explorer opens and a Google search results page comes up with the search term in the search box and results are presented. Is it possible that I can enter the term into the address bar and open the folder?
Thank you
Andrew

I recently installed an update of Windows for Vista. The appearance has changed and even the Start button is no longer a circle but the former rectangle that says start. How can I get the old look back with on the uninstallation of the update? Thank you
Original title: updates
Hello
It seems that the update was for graphics, as it changed the appearance
If the update is the problem, you will need to remove it or download and reinstall the graphics driver from your computer or the manufacturer of the graphical Web site map.
_________________________________________
Read this information about updates:
Microsoft gives sometimes you updates for the 3rd party hardware: graphics, network cards, etc.
You should only get the latest drivers for them to real hardware manufacturer's website, as Microsoft normally does nor those have the most recent drivers available as Microsoft relies of the 3rd party hardware Manufactuer to provide.
But unfortunately, the only way to know which is the update of the problem is to install them one by one, until you find the 'wrong' for your installation.
You can do a system restore to get back until it has been installed (which is NOT the best way to remove an update) or follow this method:
'Remove an update'
