When typing a website it automatically tries to connect to the homepage of the site instead of the page I am actually trying to connect to.

For example want to visit tsn.ca/nhl and start tying it keep selecting tsn.ca instead of picking the site that is always loaded.


Firefox continues to put in tsn.ca the homepage that I NEVER visit.

Hi, please Copy/Paste about:preferences to the Address Bar and Enter. Go down the page to Browsing. Uncheck the box : Search for text when you start typing

If you have the Address Bar setup as the Search Bar then need to go in there and make changes : Turn of Suggestions.

Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.

TEST''''is issue still there ?

uninstall Firefox. Then Delete the Mozilla Firefox Folders in C:\Program Files , C:\Program Files(x86) & C:\ProgramData Then restart system. Then run Windows Disk Cleanup. (Note: This should be Pinned and run Weekly, If never done below expect 10's of gig's) Then run it again and click the button that says Cleanup System Files. Note: your Firefox Profile is saved. But you should make a back up before you do :

Reinstall with Current Release Firefox 62.0.0 with a Full Version Installer
