Mulongo oyo etiyamaki na archive. Tuna motuna mosusu soki osengeli na lisalisi

Cannot search or load new websites

more options

I can load up a new session of Firefox and browse OK. Then suddenly if I enter a different website in the address bar and press enter nothing happens, as if I didn't press anything. Same for if I type into the search bar, type what I am searching then press enter and nothing happens. I can refresh the same page, that works, I can click on websites via the favourites bar and it will take me to the correct page.

I have troubleshooted, tried a few obvious things on the help pages, clear cache etc. Troubleshoot mode and refresh and the issue goes away. Then comes back quickly. This is the latest version as of 13 May 2022 with clean install I haven't any other plugins etc.

Yes that's right. I haven't been on this computer since, sorry, so today everything is fine then google search bar will not search. If I change to Bing it will search. I can't load Google from address bar but it will let me enter and submit an address for another website.
