When I open a new tab search doesn't work, I can only search through the first tab I get when I open Firefox. I can create extra tabs by right clicking something and using Open Link in New Tab, but that's it. I can't even use my pined tabs because the search won't work, the + button's new tabs can't search anymore.

When I reloaded the new tab the search bar or pinned tabs don't even try to work. No loading symbol or anything almost as if it's frozen, but it the pin tab boxes still light up...so it's not frozen.
