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.
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.
Both were already turned off.

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 :
