Search engine Bing on firefox shows very few search results, much less than before for stuff I have to get on a regular basis, how can I solve this problem?

All started 4 days ago. All of a sudden, whenever I watch anything on bing, I get between 20-28 results. Oddly enough, it works fine on internet explorer, but not Firefox. Google is also working on firefox as well. I want to continue to use bing on firefox. How can I fix it?

It seems that we have tried everything to avoid seeing you personalized results based on what Bing knows about you, or what modules might do to the results. It also does not, judging by your screen, you get mobile results, which may be shorter than the results on computers.

This raises the suspicion that your connection has been changed or there is some other external filtering past.

You can check your connection for Firefox here:

"3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Options > advanced > tab mini network > button "settings".

The default "use system proxy" should piggyback on your IE/LAN setting, but you can also try 'no proxy '.

Although it seems unlikely, it is possible that something has changed your Firefox program files. To do this, I suggest:

Clean reinstall it

We use this name, but it isn't about deleting your settings, this is to ensure that the program, files are clean (no incompatible or exotic code files). As described below, this process does not disrupt your existing settings. Don't uninstall NOT Firefox, that does not need.

(1) download a fresh Installer for Firefox 38.0.1 of https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ in an ideal location. (Scroll down your preferred language).

(2) close Firefox (if applicable).

(3) to rename the program folder:

(Windows 64-bit folder names)

C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox

TO

C:\Program Files (x86)\OldFirefox

(Windows 32-bit folder names)

C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox

TO

C:\Program Files\OldFirefox

(4) run the installer you downloaded in the #1. It should automatically connect to your existing settings.

A cleanly reinstalled Firefox search Bing normally?

Note: Some plugins can only exist in this OldFirefox file. If it is missing something essential, present in these files:

  • \OldFirefox\Plugins
  • \OldFirefox\browser\plugins
