Can't disable address bar search

more options

I just got the most recent update for Firefox, and since then I can only search in the address bar, which I don't like. In the past, I could just use the web search tab from the Mozilla homepage, and the address bar was only for URL links and websites from my history. Now, every time I try to search withing my web search tab, the texts moves to the address bar. I tried working on my settings, but regardless of how many times I uncheck the 'search in the address bar' option, it will check itself again automatically (I'm not sure this is necessarily the problem). I have already tried things in about:config, setting keyword.enabled, browser.urlbar.oneOffSearches and browser.fixup.alternate.enabled to false, but that changes the way the address bar works, it does not fix my issue. Is there any way to change that?
