How do you get completely rid of the search bar?

How do you get completely rid of the search bar and all search bar functionality?

If I remove the search bar via the the 'customize' option, it makes the address bar a combined address/search bar, and I definitely don't want that. I don't want typos when I am typing in website addresses to be run as searches.

Under 'Options' -> 'Search' the only options I see are 'Use the address bar for search and navigation' or 'Add search bar in toolbar'. I don't want either of these options, I want to completely remove the search bar and all search bar functionality.

The solve for the location bar being used as search (which is bad design) can only be fixed in about:config or user.js

user_pref("keyword.enabled", false); user_pref("browser.fixup.alternate.enabled", false); user_pref("browser.search.suggest.enabled", false); user_pref("browser.urlbar.suggest.searches", false); user_pref("browser.urlbar.speculativeConnect.enabled", false);

You can add these to a user.js that you create in your profile folder, or you can extract one like

keyword.enabled

Paste it into about:config, create it if it does exist, and set a value



open a new tab location field about:config enter


to easily open your profile folder

How tweak-erly are you? If high level then you would be pleased finding github Arkenfox user.js. The settings that are not easily changed using browser settings tools can all be had in one place
