Whenever I type in more than one word in the address bar it does a Google search, but whenever I type in a single word it takes me to http://domainnotfound.optimum.net with an error.

I've tried the following fixes that I found on this forum and nothing has worked:

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/963366?esab=a&s=address+bar+one+word+doesn%27t+work&r=4&as=s https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/968086?esab=a&s=address+bar+one+word+doesn%27t+work&r=7&as=s

and the one where you swtich off some setting in a different tab.

Can someone please help? It's super frustrating
