I had problems with my computer so I did a system restore. Also had to contact Norton. Anyway, once fixed, my Firefox search got screwed up again. Or should I say, was set back to a new update version which I hate. Someone helped me out and I was able to fix it, or reset it to the way I liked it before about a couple of weeks ago. I went to fix it again today myself and something is a little different. I had no problem with Firefox, about:config ,but the preference is not exactly the same. The word 'false' is missing now. Now it only says : browser.search.showOneOffButtons. The first word, 'false' does not precede the word browser. It's gone. Will toggling the preference the way it is now, work (without the word 'false', present). I don't want to highlight it and take the chance of making things worse, unless somebody tells me it will work the same with either the word 'false' there or not. Can anybody help. Where's the ed-meister?????

Soluzione scelta

browser.search.showOneOffButtons is the name of that preference! False will not precede the pref name in any file involving preferences; but in the prefs,js it will appear after the pref name, following a closing quote mark, a colon, and a space.

False is not part of the preference name; being a Boolean preference there are two "values" - False to disable that preference and True to enable it - which make it a preference that can be "toggled" between true / false -- on / off.

As far as doing a System Restore, check to make sure that Windows didn't revert Firefox to a previous version - the latest Firefox update was approx three weeks ago, which was mentioned as the restore date you chose to use in your PM to me.

Thanks ed-meister. I understand. And that is what Windows did, restored using the same date as the Firefox update, 12/9/14. Windows is problematic. Several times it has screwed up my Norton security after downloading one of its updates. That's why I won't let it automatically update anymore. I choose manually. Things always seem to happen at the same time with this computer. Updates seem to trigger trouble. Thanks again.
