everytime i try to type in any textboxt, or even check one of those check boxes, my search bar comes down with the google suggestions, and hitting enter on any text box googles whatever i have in the search bar. this is really annoying because I can't use the address bar anymore

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox menu button/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

  • Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox menu button/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window
